Question

What is torque?.....

Answer 1

DEFINITION OF TORQUE
Torque is the twisting force that tends to cause rotation. The point where the object rotates is known as the axis of rotation. Torque is a vector quantity. The effect of torque is to produce angular acceleration.

TORQUE IN EVERYDAY LIFE
As students, we all want to know how anything we learn will benefit us in out everyday lives and where we can find this in our everyday lives. Well, torque exists almost everywhere and here a few of the many examples:
1. Bottle cap
2.Wrench
3. Car wheel

HOW TO CALCULATE TORQUE
Torque= rF sinϴ
Torque= radius x Applied Force x sine of theta (equation in words)

Changing the angle on which the force is applied either increases or decreases the total amount of torque on the object. The greater angle the force is applied on, the greater the total torque will be; the smaller angle the force is applied on, the smaller the total torque will be.

CONCLUSION ON TORQUE
We hope after reviewing its significance in our everyday lives, you found everything you were looking for.
But always remember:
T = Force * Lever
T = Force * rsin(theta)

Answer 2

Torque is a measure of how much a force acting on an object causes that object to rotate. The object rotates about an axis, which we will call the pivot point, and will label 'O'. We will call the force 'F'.
