Sec.4.1, Sec.4.3 - Sec.4.6
Definition: (Scalar Formulation & Vector Formulation) Moment of a force (torque or moment) a measure of the tendency of the force to cause a body to rotate about the point or axis.
Magnitude: MO = F d
Where d is referred to as the moment arm or perpendicular distance from point O to the line of action of the force. Point O is a definite, about which moment are taken. So the name of the point cant be omitted.
Direction:
Counterclockwise represents the positive sense. And clockwise, the negative sense. In 2-D situation: The magnitude of the moment: the area of the parallelogram containing F and r. The direction of the moment : Using the right- hand rule, the direction and the sense of the moment vector are specified by the thumb, which points out of the page since the fingers follow the curl. The moment always acts about an axis which is perpendicular to the plane containing F and r. So the vector form of the Moment of a Force can be written as Mo = r F Resultant Moment of a System of Coplanar Forces If a system of forces lies in an x-y plane ,then the moment produced by each force about point O will be directed along z axis. Consequently, the resultant moment MRO of the system can be determined by simply adding the moment of all forces algebraically.
Principle of Transmissibility
F is a sliding vector and can act at any point along its line of action and still create the same moment about point O. (Condition?)
Mo = rA F = rB F
Example 1: A 200-N force acts on the bracket shown in Fig. 4-19a. Determine the moment of the force about point A. (Example 4.6)

Example 2: The curved rod lies in the x-y plane and has a radius of 3 m. If a force of F = 80 N acts at its end as shown, determine the moment of this force about point B. (Prob. 4-39)
4.5 Moment of a Force about a Specified Axis (The direction of the moment
obviously along the Specified Axis) When a horizontal force F is applied to the handle of the flex-headed wrench, it creates a maximum moment, Fd. If the handle is not in the horizontal position, then the moment about the z axis is equal to the component of the moment along the z axis, Fd cos.
Ma The effect of F in tending to rotate the body about the aa axis. The tendency is for rotation is measured by the moment component Ma .
The relation of Moment of a Force about a point and Moment of a Force about a Specified Axis The component or projection of Mo onto the aa axis is the moment of a force about the specified axis aa on which the point O lies. Top view of Fig.4-14 (a) ry (O) O y

x Move the origin point of the coordinate system O to point O, the top view remains unchanged. So the two k components (rx Fy- ryFx) k of the moments in both cases are the same. And hold for all points O O Considering that Fz cant create the tendency of the rotation about Z axis, the k component is the measure of the tendency of the force to cause a body to rotate about Z axis, represented by Mz(F), called the moment of F about Z axis. Conclusion : Mz(F)= (MO ) z
To determine the Ma , we first compute the moment of F about any arbitrary point O that lies on the aa axis. And so the component or projection of Ma onto the aa axis is then Ma . Ma=Mo cos= Ma ua

ua : unit vector that defines the direction encountered Ma = Ma ua = [ua (r F)] ua Ma = [ua (ri Fi)] = ua (ri Fi) Example 3:
The chain AB exerts a force of 20 lb on the door at B. determine the magnitude of the moment of this force along the hinged axis x of the door. (Prob. 4-55)
Example 4:
force P that must be applied perpendicular to the handle of the flex-headed ratchet wrench. (Prob. 4-65)
A couple moment is a free vector. That is, a couple moment is independent of the location of reference point O. It can act at any point.
