State one way to obtain a greater moment of force about a given axis of rotation

Dear student,
One simple way to increase the moment of force (or torque) would be to increase the radial distance of the action of the force from the rotation axis. It stems from the fact that torque is given as

τ = r x F

where

r is the radial distance and

F is the external force

Regards
