Lesson Title: Today we are learning about
How do the forces that cause rotation result in a moment? (Separates only)
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. A force or a system of forces may cause an object to rotate.
  2. Students should be able to describe examples in which forces cause rotation.
  3. The turning effect of a force is called the moment of the force.
  4. (MS) The size of the moment is defined by the equation: moment of a force = force ? distance M = F d moment of a force, M, in newton-metres, Nm force, F, in newtons, N distance, d, is the perpendicular distance from the pivot to the line of action of the force, in metres, m.
  5. If an object is balanced, the total clockwise moment about a pivot equals the total anticlockwise moment about that pivot.
  6. Students should be able to calculate the size of a force, or its distance from a pivot, acting on an object that is balanced.

AFL/Key Questions:
  1. What causes an object to rotate?
    A force or a system of forces may cause an object to rotate.
  2. What examples are there in which forces cause rotation?
    Examples in which forces cause rotation include: merry-go round, bike tyres, throwing a ball.
  3. What is the turning effect of a force called?
    The turning effect of a force is called the moment of the force.
  4. What equation is used to calculate the moment of a force? Include SI units.
    (MS) The size of the moment is defined by the equation: moment of a force = force ? distance M = F d moment of a force, M, in newton-metres, Nm force, F, in newtons, N distance, d, is the perpendicular distance from the pivot to the line of action of the force, in metres, m.
  5. When the total clockwise moment about a pivot equals the total anticlockwise moment about that pivot how are the forces described?
    If an object is balanced, the total clockwise moment about a pivot equals the total anticlockwise moment about that pivot.
