    The moment of force, or torque, is a first moment: =, or, more generally, .; Similarly, angular momentum is the 1st moment of momentum: =.Momentum itself is not a moment.; The electric dipole moment is also a 1st moment: = for two opposite point charges or () for a distributed charge with charge density ().

  5. Power (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_(physics)

    Power in mechanical systems is the combination of forces and movement. In particular, power is the product of a force on an object and the object's velocity, or the product of a torque on a shaft and the shaft's angular velocity. Mechanical power is also described as the time derivative of work.

  6. Torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque

    In physics and mechanics, torque is the rotational analogue of linear force. [1] It is also referred to as the moment of force (also abbreviated to moment). The symbol for torque is typically , the lowercase Greek letter tau. When being referred to as moment of force, it is commonly denoted by M.

  7. Couple (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Couple_(mechanics)

    In other words, a couple, unlike any more general moments, is a "free vector". (This fact is called Varignon's Second Moment Theorem.) [2] The proof of this claim is as follows: Suppose there are a set of force vectors F 1, F 2, etc. that form a couple, with position vectors (about some origin P), r 1, r 2, etc., respectively. The moment about P is

  8. Momentum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Momentum

    In both frames of reference, any change in momentum will be found to be consistent with the relevant laws of physics. Suppose x is a position in an inertial frame of reference. From the point of view of another frame of reference, moving at a constant speed u relative to the other, the position (represented by a primed coordinate) changes with ...
