...turn a body round a fixed point we shall have to take into account (1) The magnitude of the force. (2) The perpendicular distance of the line of action of the force from the fixed point. We must first explain what we mean by the measure of each of these elements, and then... | |

...the plane of its action ; the efficiency of a force to turn a body about a given point is directly as the perpendicular distance of the line of action of the force from the given point, and as the magnitude of the force ; or, as the product of the perpendicular distance... | |

...parallel forces and the lever is straight the arms may be measured along the lever. Otherwise, the arm is the perpendicular distance of the line of action of the force from the fulcrum. The point of the lever in contact with the fulcrum is fixed; therefore the fulcrum will... | |

...LECTURE XI. MOMENTS. The moments of a force with respect to a point is the product of the force into the perpendicular distance of the line of action of the force from the point. This distance is called the arm of the force. That is, the moment of a force is the measure... | |

...magnitude of the component of a given force perpendicular tp a given line L and the number which represents the perpendicular distance of the line of action of the force from the line L is called the moment of the force about the line L. If the three components (X, Y, Z) of... | |
