We sometimes use the moment caused by the force so as to determine the moment of inertia of the body. The moment is the cross product of which two vectors? Correct Answer Radius and Force vectors

The cross product needs to take in the proper sequence. If not taken then the answer is just the opposite of the true answer. That’s why, the answer is not the Force and Radius vectors, but the Radius and Force vectors. Because the moment has its direction, as many of the cross products have, and thus precaution needs to be taken.

Which of the following statements of D’Alembert’s principle are correct? 1. The net external force F actually acting on the body and the inertia force F1 together keep the body in a state of fictitious equilibrium. 2. The equation of motion may be written as F + (-ma) = 0 and the fictitious force (-ma) is called an inertia force. 3. It tends to give solution of a static problem an appearance akin to that of a dynamic problem.

Two stores A and B bought the same product from the company at the same price. Store A marked the price of the product 50% above its cost price and offered two successive discounts of 15% and 10% on the marked price of the product, while store B marked the price of the product 60% above its cost price and offered two successive discounts of 15% and 12% on the marked price of the product. If a customer buys the product from store B, he has to pay Rs. 986 more than that at store A. At what price the two stores bought the product from the company?
