2. How to work out the moment of a turning effect is...

  • moment of a force = force x perpendicular distance from the pivot to the line of action of the force
  • Moment of a force = force / perpendicular distance from the pivot to the line of action of the force
  • Moment of a force = perpendicular distance from the pivot to the line of action of the force / force

3. What does Equilibrium mean

  • An object is balenced, not moving
  • An object is turning due to unbalenced forces
  • When an object is steady

4. If the line of action of the weight lies outside the base of an object, there will be a moment and the object wont topple over. True or False?

  • False
  • True

5. The wider the base of an object and the lower its centre of mass the further it has to tilt before the line of action of the weight moves outside the base.

  • True
  • False
