How to calculate moments with the cross product

This engineering statics tutorial goes over how to calculate moments with the cross product. Even though the cross product is only for vectors with 3 components, we can use it to calculate moments in R2 by simply setting the third component of each vector to zero!

Just come across this channel! Thanks so much for these tutorials man!

[@Engineer4Free]

Glad it helps, I make new videos all the time so stick around!

[@ishiokitetsu4107]

Thanks! Gonna score A on tomorrow's test.

[@Engineer4Free]

I hope it went well!! The rest of the playlist is here too: engineer4free.com/statics👌

[@ishiokitetsu4107]

Thanks for your concern. My test was postponed for the next week. This playlist is much appreciated though. Thank you.

[@TheCherry1994]

Thanks!
These videos deserve more views!

+TheCherry1994 Thanks for the kind words! I wish everybody knew about them too :p

& years later but I dont understand why you changed 4 to -4 when you put in the column. Thanks for the life saving videos!

Position on a graph would be negative (the point where force is acting is at x = 3 and y = -4 and z = 0)

good vid boss gave me a good refresher

[@Engineer4Free]

Awesome! 🤜🤛

[@cyrillemagdi7717]

Thanks a lot, I hope you would make more videos on electric circuits they 'll be really helpful for me in my physics exams.

[@Engineer4Free]

I plan to get to making them one day :)

[@noideawhatiamdoing3550]

Plz make some videos on electric circuit as well

[@Engineer4Free]

Hey Faheem I do eventually hope to make some videos on circuits 🙂🙂

[@dannyb6993]

kinda confused.. I'm missing the pattern for the cross multiplication part at 2:27ish

[@Engineer4Free]

+Danny B Hey thanks for commenting. I made a video about how to use the cross product in a previous video: www.engineer4free.com/4/determine-the-cross-product-of-two-vectors-in-r3 It's time consuming to talk through all the steps, so I don't always say them all after the initial video. Hope that helps!

[@dannyb6993]

Thanks!!
