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

00:00:00 - 00:05:00

This video discusses how to solve a problem involving the moment around an axis using the concepts of force, position, and unit vector. The author first sets aside the information required to solve the problem and then provides a step-by-step guide. Finally, the author provides an example of how to solve the problem using the information presented.

• 00:00:00 In the previous video, we discussed the scalar process of finding moments about a point. In this video, we explore how to find moments about a specific axis using vector analysis. We use the cross product between a position vector and a force to find the moment. If you are unfamiliar with solving scalar triple products, you can check the description for the video. Next, we look at how to find moments about a specified axis using vector analysis for a 3D problem.
• 00:05:00 In this video, the author explains how to solve a problem involving the moment around an axis using the concepts of force, position, and unit vector. In each case, the author first sets aside the information required to solve the problem and then provides a step-by-step guide. Finally, the author provides an example of how to solve the problem using the information presented.
