1. Define the moment of force.

Hint: It's related to rotation and distance from the pivot.

Answer: Moment of force is the turning effect of a force about a point.

2. What is the SI unit of the moment of force?

Hint: It involves force and distance.

Answer: The SI unit is newton metre (N m).

3. State the relation between force and moment of force.

Hint: It's a product of two quantities.

Answer: Moment of force = Force × Perpendicular distance from the pivot.

4. Calculate the moment of force if a 10 N force is applied at a distance of 2 m from the pivot.

Hint: Use the formula: Moment = Force × Distance.

Answer: Moment = 10 × 2 = 20 N m.

5. What happens to the moment of force if the distance from the pivot is doubled?

Hint: Think about the direct proportionality.

Answer: The moment of force also doubles.
