The turning effect, caused from force, is called The moment of a force.
The turning effects of forces are known as moments. A moment is computed by multiplying the force by the perpendicular distance from its line of action to the fulcrum.
A moment of a force is a measurement of the turning effect of that force. For example, the force of a hand pushing down on a door handle creates a turning effect, and is therefore described as a moment.

SI unit for moment arm is 1 meter
The turning effect, caused from force, is called The moment of a force.
Moment=>This is the turning effect of a force about a point
Moment of inertia has unit kg m2
turning effect of body
the turning point of a event

The SI unit for moment (torque) is a newton metre and its abbreviation is "N.m"
