Solution

Determine the unit of moment of force.

  1. The moment of force is the product of the distance from the point to the point of application of the force and the component of the force perpendicular to the line of distance.
  2. Formula: Moment of force =F×d

Where F= Force and d= distance

Hence, the unit of moment of force is "Newton-meters".
