Questions and Answers
In the experiment with the door, why is it more difficult to close the door when the finger is placed closer to the hinge?
In the experiment with the door, why is it more difficult to close the door when the finger is placed closer to the hinge?
- The force and distance are the same
- The distance from the hinge is smaller
- The force applied is smaller
- The moment of the force is smaller (correct)
Which of the following best describes a moment of force?
Which of the following best describes a moment of force?
- The turning effect of a force (correct)
- The size of the force applied
- The distance between the force and the object
- The force required to cause an object to rotate
What is the equation used to calculate the moment of a force?
What is the equation used to calculate the moment of a force?
- $moment = force + distance$
- $moment = force - distance$
- $moment = force \times distance$ (correct)
- $moment = force \div distance$
