When the section is subjected to an axial load and a moment, the ratio of the moment to the load is called:

When the section is subjected to an axial load and a moment, the ratio of the moment to the load is called: Correct Answer Eccentricity

Explanation:

We know  Moment (M) = P × e 

Where P is Load, e is the eccentricity

→ e = M/P

∴ The ratio of the moment to the load is called eccentricity
