Question

what is torque analogus to in translational motion

Answer 1

Answer:

For objects that rotate, the equation for rotational motion, T = Ix is analogous to F = ma. Torque (T) corresponds to Force (F). Angular Acceleration, x, corresponds with "translational" Acceleration, a. Rotational Inertia, I, corresponds to Mass, m.
