The reason why the direction was not taken from point O is the moment is to be taken about line AB, which means our reference position must be any point on the line. But to make it simply we just use point A or B as references. Any of the two works. I used point B, you can try with A and you'll realize that it's the same answer you will get. Hope you understand.
@@SkanCityAcademy_SirJohn sir then if you take reference point as B .shouldnt that r(BC) instead of r(OC) .so rC = 4i+2k Because M(AB) is projection of M(O) on AB Axis ,thats what you said
You have no idea how incredible and helpful these videos are, thank you so much!!
You are most welcome
why is rc taken from B Not the center O, cause i thought r is the distance o from the center perpendicular to any part of the force
maybe a mistake, i'm not sure. I was wondering the same.
Why is that the r wasn’t directed from O to the line of action of the force but B rather

Why was the unit vector of x i?
Kindly note the time stamp so I check and respond accordingly
