प्रश्न
The moment of a force of 10 N about a fixed point O is 5 N m. Calculate the distance of the point O from the line of action of the force.
उत्तर १
Moment of force = force x perpendicular distance of from point O
Moment of force = F x r
5Nm = 10 x r
R = 5/10 = 0.5 m
उत्तर २
Given: Moment of force = 5 Nm
Force = 10 N
According to the formula,
Moment of force = F × OA
5 Nm = 10 × OA
OA = 5/10
= 0.5 m
