As BvU noted, you must define your axis.Benjamin_harsh said:
If you don't define an axis of rotation, your statement is meaningless.Benjamin_harsh said:
A moment in a diagram refers to the turning effect or torque caused by a force acting on an object. It is a measure of the force's ability to rotate the object around a fixed point or axis.
A moment is typically represented by a vector arrow pointing perpendicular to the plane of the diagram and labeled with its magnitude and direction.
The formula for calculating a moment is M = F x d, where M is the moment, F is the force applied, and d is the perpendicular distance from the point of rotation to the line of action of the force.
Some examples of moments in diagrams include a wrench turning a bolt, a seesaw pivoting on a fulcrum, and a door being opened or closed by a doorknob.
The direction of a moment is determined by the right-hand rule, where the thumb points in the direction of the force and the fingers curl in the direction of the rotation.
