Two upwards forces act: one of 34N 34 N which is 3.5m 3.5 m to the left of the axle, the other is 25N 25 N and is 2.6m 2.6 m to the right of the axle. There is also a 10N 10 N force to the left which is 0.80m 0.80 m below the axle.

Answer: The object will go anticlockwise. I.e the object turns towards the left

Explanation:

Moment is defined as the product of force and perpendicular distance.

Also, to achieve equilibrium, clockwise moment = anticlockwise moments

Anticlockwise moment = 34 × 3.5 = 119 Ns

clockwise moments = (25 × 2.6) + ( 10 × 0.8 )

= 65 + 8

= 73 Ns

Since the anticlockwise moment is greater than clockwise moments, the object will go anticlockwise. I.e the object turns towards the left
