force of 20N about an axis of rotation at
distance 0.5m from the force.
2. The moment of a force of 25N about a point is 2.5Nm. Find the perpendicular distance
of force from that point.

3) A spanner of length 10 cm is used to open a nut by applying a minimum force of 5.0 N.


Calculate the moment of force required.
