What is Understanding Moment of Force and Couples about?
The moment of a force is a measure of its turning tendency about a point. In 3D, it is defined as the cross product of the position vector and the force vector. In 2D, it is the magnitude of the force multiplied by the perpendicular distance to the line of action. A couple is two equal and opposite parallel forces that cause only rotation. The moment of a couple is the product of one of the forces and the distance between their lines of action. Varignon
