moment

a turning effect produced by a force acting at a distance on an object.
The moment of force applied to the wrench created a turning effect that loosened the stubborn bolt.

moment

a quantity that expresses the average or expected value of the first, second, third, or fourth power of the deviation of each component of a frequency distribution from some given value, typically mean or zero. The first moment is the mean, the second moment the variance, the third moment the skew, and the fourth moment the kurtosis.
The first, second, third, and fourth moments of a data set respectively provide information about the mean, variance, skewness, and kurtosis of the distribution.

moment

When you touch for the first time, or when you have some other experience which is dope, and you want that moment to last forever, that's when you're having a moment.

One moment in time is something else, that's simply the same as one point in the time dimension, which is no time period at all because it doesn't last for as much as a fragment of a second.

However, if someone is using the phrase Moment, that means that you should just shut up and kindly behave for a moment or two until the moment comes when your life can continue. In other words: Wait a little. In this case, a moment actually is a period of time, and certainly not just one moment in time.

Moment

The tendency of a force to rotate an object about a point. Sometimes referred to as a torque. It is usually a vector quantity whose magnitude is expressed in Newton meters, pound feet, etc.

The moment vector at a point is given by the cross product of the position vector and the force vector. The magnitude of a moment about a specific axis is given by the cross product of the position vector and the force vector, dotted with the unit vector along the specified axis.

The moment vector is always perpendicular to both the position vector and the force vector, as it is a cross product.
A force on a wrench imparts a moment on the bolt.

Moment

You know... There was this one time... Where... She was returning from checking the mail... And... When she got to the patio she parroted one of the things he used to say and she kind of playfully hopped up onto the step and turned back and looked at him... Waiting for him to follow... And it was just so beautiful... The image has faded a bit but... I don't think I'll ever forget that moment... But... Just in case I do... I'll just leave it here...
Iam "Did I do this one already? I can't recall.... Either way... It was a beautiful moment and I'll never forget the way she made me feel... I don't even have a word to describe it... I guess, that's why I'm using several..."
