In the context of a couple of moments, what happens when the distance between the two forces increases?
2. In the context of a couple of moments, what happens when the distance between the two forces increases?
- The magnitude of the moment decreases
- The magnitude of the moment increases
- The moment becomes unstable
- The direction of the moment changes
Answer
The correct answer is: B) The magnitude of the moment increases
Explanation
The moment produced by a couple is directly proportional to the distance between the two forces. Therefore, if the distance increases, the magnitude of the moment increases as well.
