The turning moment on the cover of the book is 0.05 Nm.
Explanation:
Given:
Force applied (F) = 0.5 N
Distance covered (d) = 10 cm
Converting Distance covered from cm to meter we get (d)= 0.1 m
To find:
Turning Moment (M) on the cover of the book = ?
Formula to be used:
Turning Moment (M) = F × d
= 0.5 × 0.1
= 0.05 Nm
Thus the turning moment on the cover of the book is found to be 0.05 Nm
