In physics and mechanics, torque is the rotational
equivalent of linear force. It is also referred to as the
moment, moment of force, rotational force or turning
effect, depending on the field of study.
Teka
Torque refers to the rotational force. i.e Torque = Force × radius.
Arun
Torque is the rotational equivalent of force .
Specifically, it is a force exerted at a distance
from an object's axis of rotation. In the same way
that a force applied to an object will cause it to
move linearly, a torque applied to an object will
cause it to rotate around a pivot point.
Teka
Torque is the rotational equivalence of force . So,
a net torque will cause an object to rotate with an
angular acceleration. Because all rotational
motions have an axis of rotation, a torque must
be defined about a rotational axis. A torque is a
force applied to a point on an object about the
axis
