Moment About a Specified Axis | Mechanics Statics | (Learn to Solve Any Question)

Learn to find the moment about a specific axis instead of a singular point. We talk about a scalar method and a vector method to solve these problems. We also go through 3 examples step by step.

In the examples, sometimes it's shown that a force would turn an object about a point or an axis, in reality, this is only to help students visualize the moment created by a force.
