  1. Moments It takes less force using the spanner but it is still the same moment to undo the bolt. The turning effect of this force is called the moment of force. Moment = Force x Perpendicular Distance (Newton metres) (Newtons) (Metres)

  2. M Moment F x D Distance Force The moment of a force depends on two things: The size of the force. The distance from the pivot the force is being applied.

  3. Centre of Mass The centre of mass of an object is the point where its mass may be thought to be concentrated. Calculating the centre of mass of a 2D shape.
