Question

what is torque?? explain with an example

Answer 1

Torque is the twisting force that tends to cause rotation. The point where the object rotates is known as the axis of rotation. ... When the sum of all torques acting on an object equals zero, it is in rotational equilibrium.

Answer 2

Torque, moment, or moment of force is rotational force. Just as a linear force is a push or a pull, a torque can be thought of as a twist to an object. In three dimensions, the torque is a pseudovector; for point particles, it is given by the cross product of the position vector and the force vector.
