The moment of a force about a given axis depends on:
(a) only on the magnitude of force
(b) only on the perpendicular distance of force from the axis
(c) neither the force nor the perpendicular distance of force from the axis
(d) both, the force and its perpendicular distance from the axis.

(d) both, the force and its perpendicular distance from the axis.
Explanation: Moment of force (also called torque) is given by: Moment = Force × Perpendicular distance from axis So it depends on both these factors.
