Which of the following corresponds to the definition of the moment of a force?
The ratio of the force to the surface area over which it is distributed.
The product of the force and the perpendicular distance from the pivot to the line of action of the force.
The product of the force and the duration of time for which the force acts.
The rate of work done by the force per unit time.
245 exam-style questions on CIE IGCSE Physics 1.5 Forces, covering 1.5.1a Forces, resultant force and motion, 1.5.1b Load–extension graphs and the spring constant, 1.5.1c Friction and drag, 1.5.1d Force, mass and acceleration, 1.5.1e Motion in a circular path, 1.5.2a Moment of a force, 1.5.2b Principle of moments and equilibrium, and 1.5.3 Centre of gravity and stability. Each one has a worked solution and a mark scheme showing where the marks go.
