Answer 1

Question :-

• A Body is Pivoted at a Point. A Force of 10 N is Applied at a Distance of 30 cm from the Pivot. Find the Amount of Force about the Pivot.

Answer :-

• Amount of Force is 3 Nm .

Explanation :-

As per the provided information in the given question, The Force is given as 10 Newton . The Distance is given as 30 cm [ 0.3 m ] . And, we have been asked to calculate the Amount of Force .

For calculating the Force , we will use the Formula :-

`\bigstar \: \: \: \boxed{ \: \sf {Moment \: of \: Force \: = \: Force \: * \: Distance} \: }`

Therefore , by Substituting the given values in the above Formula :-

`\dag \: \: \: \sf {Moment \: of \: Force \: = \: Force \: * \: Distance}`

`\longmapsto \: \: \: \sf {Moment \: of \: Force \: = \: 10 \: * \: 0.3}`

`\longmapsto \: \: \: \textbf {\textsf {Moment \: of \: Force \: = \: 3}}`

Hence :-

• Amount of Force = 0.3 Nm .
