you mean the author just simply give the direction of moment ?haruspex said:
No, I'm saying that the author did not care about being consistent. It was not relevant to the point being made.goldfish9776 said:
The direction of rotation of moment is the direction in which a force tends to cause an object to rotate. It is typically described using the right-hand rule, where the fingers of your right hand curl in the direction of the force and your thumb points in the direction of rotation.
The direction of rotation of moment is determined by the direction of the force and the position of the force relative to the object's axis of rotation. The direction of rotation is perpendicular to both the force and the axis of rotation.
Yes, the direction of rotation of moment is dependent on the direction of the force. Reversing the direction of the force will also reverse the direction of rotation.
Yes, the direction of rotation of moment can be changed by changing the direction of the force or by changing the position of the force relative to the object's axis of rotation.
The direction of rotation of moment is important because it determines the direction in which an object will rotate in response to a force. This is crucial in understanding and predicting the behavior of objects in motion, and is particularly important in engineering and physics applications.
