MOMENT OF A FORCE (Section 4.1)
Today’s Objectives :
Students will be able to:
a) understand and define moment,
and,
b) determine moments of a force in
2-D and 3-D cases.
Learning Topics :
• Applications
• Moment in 2-D
• Moment in 3-D
4
MOMENT IN 2-D (continued)
In the 2-D case, the magnitude of the moment is
Mo = F d
Fx
b a
O
Using this approach, MO = (FY a) – (FX b). Note the different
signs on the terms! The typical sign convention for a moment in
2-D is that counter-clockwise is considered positive. We can
determine the direction of rotation by imagining the body pinned
at O and deciding which way the body would rotate because of
6
the force.

EXAMPLE
Given: A 400 N force is
applied to the frame
and = 20°.
Find: The moment of the
force at A.
Plan:
1) Resolve the force along x and y axes.
2) Determine MA using scalar analysis.
11
EXAMPLE (continued)
Solution
+ Fy = -400 sin 20° N
+ Fx = -400 cos 20° N
+ MA = {(400 cos 20°)(2) + (400 sin 20°)(3)} N·m
= 1160 N·m

IN CLASS TUTORIAL (GROUP PROBLEM SOLVING)
Given: A 40 N force is
applied to the wrench.
Find: The moment of the
force at O.
Plan: 1) Resolve the force
along x and y axes.
2) Determine MO using
scalar analysis.
Solution: + Fy = - 40 cos 20° N
+ Fx = - 40 sin 20° N
+ MO = {-(40 cos 20°)(200) + (40 sin 20°)(30)}N·mm
= -7107 N·mm = - 7.11 N·m

HOMEWORK TUTORIAL (continued)
Q3 (4-31):
The worker is using the bar to pull two pipes together in order to
complete the connection. If he applies a horizontal force F to the
handle of the lever, determine the moment of this force about the
end A. What would be the tension T in the cable needed to cause
the opposite moment about point A.
16
MOMENT IN 3-D (Vector formulation Section 4.3)
The right hand rule is a useful tool for determining the direction of
the vector resulting from a cross product.
For example: i j = k
Note that a vector crossed into itself is zero, e.g., i i = 0
19
CROSS PRODUCT (continued)
20
MOMENT IN 3-D (continued)
So, using the cross product, a
moment can be expressed as
MRo = ∑(r x F)
22
PRINCIPLE OF MOMENTS
For F = F1 + F2,
MO = r X F1 + r X F2
= r X (F1 + F2)
=rXF

EXAMPLE
Given: The pole support a 100N (≈
10kg) traffic light.
Find: Using Cartesian vectors,
determine the moment of the
weight of the traffic light about
the base of the pole at A.
Plan: 1) Find a position vector of
traffic light.
5.4m=
2) Using Cartesian vector
notation, determine the force that
the traffic light acted on the pole.
3) MA = r X F

EXAMPLE (continued)
rAB = {( XB – XA)i +(YB – YA)j +(ZB – ZA) k}m
= {(3.6sin30 – 0)i + (3.6cos30 – 0)j
+ (5.4 – 0)k}m
B = {1.8i + 3.12j + 5.4k}m
F = -100k
