2. The opening of a door, for example, causes the door to rotate around its hinges when a pushing force is applied to the handle.
3. The hinges serve as a pivot in this case.
4. The moment or turning effect is proportional to the perpendicular distance between the hinges.
5. Examples of the moment are:
   5.1 seesaws
