What is a Moment or Moment of a Force?

The time taken for something to turn.

How do you calculate a Moment?

Moment = Force x Distance from Pivot Nm or Ncm= (N) (m or cm)

Moment = Mass x Gravity (N) = (kg) x (10)

1What is a Moment or Moment of a Force?
1. AThe time taken for something to turn.
2. BThe turning effect of a force.
2How do you calculate a Moment?
1. AMoment = Force x Distance from Pivot
  Nm or Ncm= (N) (m or cm)
2. BMoment = Mass x Gravity
  (N) = (kg) x (10)
3. CMoment = Force / Area
3In a test, if you are given mass instead of force what do you need to do?
1. ATurn it into Weight
2. BTurn it into Pressure
3. CTurn it into Height
4A girl is trying to unscrew a nut using a spanner.
State TWO ways of increasing this turning effect
1. AUse a shorter hammer
2. BUse a longer hammer
3. CTurn the spanner the other way
4. DUse a bigger force
5. EUse a heavier spanner
5If a spanner is 30cm long and you are putting a force of 100N on it, what is the moment?
1. A3000Ncm
2. B3000Nm
3. C300Ncm
