(a) describe the moment of a force in terms of its turning effect and relate this to everyday examples 

(b)  recall and apply the relationship moment of a force (or torque) = force × perpendicular distance 
from the pivot to new situations or to solve related problems 

(c) state the principle of moments for a body in equilibrium 

 

(d) apply the principle of moments to new situations or to solve related problems 

(e) show understanding that the weight of a body may be taken as acting at a single point known as its 
centre of gravity

(f) describe qualitatively the effect of the position of the centre of gravity on the stability of objects
