Question

Calculate the force applied on a body producing a moment of force of 16N m such that the perpendicular distance between the point of application of force and the turning point is 80cm.

Answer 1

Dear Student,
$$\begin{gathered} MomentofForce=Force\left(F\right)\times perpendiculardis\tan cebetweenthepointofapplicationofforceandthepivot\left(d\right) \\ Force=\frac{F}{d}=\frac{16}{80\times {10}^{-2}}=20N \\ Ans \end{gathered}$$
