If I was tightening a nut with a spanner measuring 0.3m with a force of 25N what would the moment be?
7.5
1 of 8
The measurement for Moments are
Nm
2 of 8
To get the maximum moment possible you should push at...
Right Angles
3 of 8
The centre of mass of an object is the point at which the whole mass is....
concentrated
4 of 8
Where is the centre of mass of a regular square where x = the centre of mass
| x |
5 of 8
If I did the same in Question 3 but with a spanner measuring 0.2m what would happen?
Less force required to turn same nut
6 of 8
If an object is travelling in a circle it is constantly changing direction, which means it's
accelerating
7 of 8
Leading on from Question 11, for that object to be constantly accelerating there must be a force acting upon - that force is called a
centripetal
8 of 8

I have realised for Question 7. the alignment of the X has been altered by the system. It should read:

Option 1: | X |
Option 2: |X  |
Option 3: |  X|

That's just your computer unable to display it properly. Try not using Internet Explorer :)

That is if you are.

Which you are more than likely because 95% of Internet Explorer sucks at displaying WC3 Standard HTML and CSS :)

Geek talk :P

@RROD I'm using Mozilla Firefox (latest version); it's probably something wrong with my settings ^^

despite tht tho its really good for revision

thnx it helped a lot

Q8 - you would need more force because the distance has been decreased.
