the primary purpose for me of opening this thread here was to basically understand the difference between the reaction moment (arising from a static equilibrium model) and a moment arising from a moment arm in a Rigid Body motion.
Please observe the model below, showing a Rigid Body motion about the Z axis of revolute joint.
How is this moment different from the reaction moment that we see on the fixed support of a cantilever beam (subjected to shear force on the other end) in a static equilibrium model? Both models have a shear force at one end and a distance D, and when F is multiplied by D, it gives the same moment (rather it be reaction moment or moment arising from moment arm). So what would be the difference between these two moments.
Please observe the model below, showing a Rigid Body motion about the Z axis of revolute joint.
