How does the effect of force differ when it is applied on a non-rigid body?
State two factors on which affect moment of force.
The steering wheel of a vehicle is of large diameter.
The stone of hand flour grinder is provided with a handle near its rim. Give reason.
A wheel of diameter 2 m is shown in the figure with the axle at O. A force F = 2 N is applied at B in the direction shown in the figure. Calculate the moment of force about
- the centre O, and
- the point A.
Two forces each of magnitude 10 N act vertically upwards and downwards respectively at the two ends A and B of a uniform rod of length 4 m which is pivoted at its midpoint O as shown in the figure. Determine the magnitude of the resultant moment of forces about the pivot O.
State two factors affecting the turning effect of a force.
The perpendicular distance between the point of application of force and turning point is 1.75 m when a force of 80 N acts on a rigid body. Calculate the moment of force.
