Chapter 4 Moments

4.2 Resultant Moments

When you have several coplanar forces acting on a body, you can determine the turning effect around a given point by choosing a positive direction (clockwise or anticlockwise) and then finding the sum of the moments produced by each force. The sum of the moments acting on a body is called the resultant moment. In this lesson you learn about moments resultant moments , resultant moments, 2d moments.


If you're a student in a school/college that's based in England, you might be entitled for full access to our eLearning platform where you can access to all our tutorial videos and practice questions.

Please check with the head of Maths or deputy headteacher at your school/college to request access if they've already registered to our free pilot subscription. They can always reach us at the below email:
