The perpendicular distance between the applied force and the center of rotation is called the The perpendicular distance between the applied force and the center of rotation is called the torque. A. ability to cause B. an object to rotate. C. moment arm. D. cross-product.

option c)

Explanation: The moment formulae is given by

Moment = force × perpendicular distance.

Moment is zero when the applied force and distance away from the force to a turning point (center of rotation) are not perpendicular.

The perpendicular distance between the applied force and the center of rotation is the main reason for moment to be available in any system, hence that distance is called a moment arm
