Question 34
Easy

Which of these is the correct equation to calculate the moment of a force?

moment of a force=force×perpendicular distance from the pivot\text{moment of a force} = \text{force} \times \text{perpendicular distance from the pivot}moment of a force=force×perpendicular distance from the pivot

moment of a force=force÷perpendicular distance from the pivot\text{moment of a force} = \text{force} \div \text{perpendicular distance from the pivot}moment of a force=force÷perpendicular distance from the pivot

moment of a force=force×distance moved in the direction of the force\text{moment of a force} = \text{force} \times \text{distance moved in the direction of the force}moment of a force=force×distance moved in the direction of the force

moment of a force=force÷distance moved in the direction of the force\text{moment of a force} = \text{force} \div \text{distance moved in the direction of the force}moment of a force=force÷distance moved in the direction of the force
