What does the moment of the force measured in the rolling of the body?

(a) The tendency of rotation of the body along any axis

(b) The moment of inertia of the body about any axis

(c) The couple moment produce by the single force acting on the body

(d) The total work done on the body by the force

The question was posed to me in homework.

The above asked question is from Rolling Resistance in section Friction of Engineering Mechanics

Best answer
The correct option is (a) The tendency of rotation of the body along any axis

Best explanation: The moment of the force measures the tendency of the rotation of the body along any axis, whether it be the centroid axis of the body, or any of the outside axis. The couple moment is produced by two forces, not by a single force. The total work done is the dot product of force and distance not the cross.
