What is the definition of a moment in engineering?

• The force applied to an object

• The turning effect of a force about a pivot

• The distance from the pivot to the force

• The weight of an object

Which of the following is a type of moment?

• Force Moment

• Clockwise Moment

• Dynamic Moment

• Static Moment

In the context of equilibrium, what does it mean for forces to be balanced?

• Forces are unopposed

• Forces cancel each other out

• Forces are equal in direction

• Forces are equal in magnitude

What is the formula to calculate the moment?

• Moment = Distance / Force

• Moment = Force x Distance

• Moment = Force / Distance

• Moment = Force + Distance

If a force of 800 N is applied at a distance of 4.25 m from the pivot, what is the moment?

• 340 Nm

• 3400 Nm

• 34000 Nm

• 4250 Nm

What condition must be met for an object to be in equilibrium?

• Resultant force must be zero

• Resultant moment must be non-zero

• Forces must be unbalanced

• Moments must be greater than forces

If the system of forces is in equilibrium, what does the equation 7 N x d = 5 N x 140 mm represent?

• Mass = Acceleration

• Force = Distance

• Distance = Force

• Clockwise Moment = Anticlockwise Moment

Which of the following is NOT a real-life application of moment?

• Using a wrench

• Opening a door

• Seesaws

• Balancing a scale

In engineering, what does it mean for a moment to be clockwise?

• The force rotates the object in a counter-clockwise direction

• The force rotates the object in a clockwise direction

• The force is applied at the pivot point

• The force has no effect on the rotation

What is the principle behind the lever in terms of moments?

• Mass is divided by force

• Distance is multiplied by mass

• Force is multiplied by distance

• Force is equal to mass times acceleration
