Slide 2

Pressure - In solids

Pressure - In solids

If a force is applied over a smaller surface area you get a larger pressure.

Pressure can be calculated using the following equation:

Newtons

N

Pascals or N/m2

m2

Pressure - In liquids

Pressure - In liquids

All hydraulics systems work because the pressure is the same throughout the system.

Moments

Moments

Moments make things turn or rotate.

They are caused by forces but are not forces themselves.

The moment will be bigger if:

The force causing the turning effect is bigger.

The force is further from the pivot.

Slide 5

Calculating the size of a moment

Calculating the size of a moment

Moment = Force x Distance

Newtons

N

m

Nm

Anti-clockwise Moment = Clockwise Moment

Net moment is zero
