Moment arm correct answers the perpendicular distance from the line of action to the pivot point
torque correct answers sometimes called a moment
Moment correct answers the force multiplied by the moment arm
True correct answers If the line of action of a force does not go through the pivot point of an
object, it will tend to rotate the object. T/F
larger torque correct answers larger moment arm =
no torque correct answers when moment arm = 0...
centric force correct answers applied through axis of rotation
creates no movement, so no rotation
eccentric force correct answers applied some distance away from axis of rotation
creates a moment, so causes rotation
most are this
