FRNERESCECRENS Magnitude of the moment of a force about an axis which is perpendicular to a plane containing the line of action of the force. CEE Giese: Varignon's theorem states that the moment of a force is equivalent to the sum of the moments ofits components PRINCIPLES OF STATICS| —<—<— Mg = FX + FXX Fd = Fx¥ + FyX where: Fx =is the horizontal component of the force E Fy =is the vertical component of the force F ‘Two forces acting at A and B.
