Torque is the tendency of a force to rotate the body to which it is applied.Torque is always specified with regard to the axis of rotation. It is equal to the magnitude of the component of the force lying in the plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation, multiplied by the shortest distance between the axis and the direction of the force component. Torque is the force that affects rotational motion; the greater the torque, the greater the change in this motion.
Whereas,force is the agency that alters the direction, speed, or shape that a body would exhibit in the absence of any external influence.It is a vector quantity, having both magnitude and direction. Force is commonly explained in terms of Newton's laws of motion. All known natural forces can be traced to the fundamental interactions. Force is measured in newtons (N).

∙ 11y agoThe term "torque" is used specifically for circular motion. For a difference, torque and force have different dimensions. Torque has the dimensions of force x distance. This is because you can increase the torque both by applying more force, or by increasing distance from the axis of rotation, of the position where the force is applied.

Rotating force about the fulcrum is called?
The rotational equivalent of a force is a torque. Note, however, that a torque is no longer a force - it is a force multiplied by a distance.
How do you compute the torque exerted by a force?
Torque is Force you silly duffa
What is the torque force if you are turning a wrench that is 55cm long and you are using 15N of force?
torque = force * lever length torque = 15 * 55 torque = 825 n-cms
What do you call the turning effect of a force?
torque. Torque = force * moment arm
Can a torque be balanced by a single force?
The effect of a torque is to produce angular acceleration and that of the force is to produce linear acceleration. Since the effects of both torque and force are entirely different, therefore, a torque cannot be balanced by a single force.
Is torque a true force?
Torque is the combination of perpendicular distance and weight; it is not a true force
Is there any torque if force is zero?
NO. not at all b/c torque is directly related to force
What is the derivation of Torque and power equation of induction motor?
Torque is the cross product of radius and force .Torque is a twisting effect. Torque is the cross product of radius and force .Torque is a twisting effect.
Can a force produce a torque when there is no lever arm?
no because to get a torque you must multiply lever arm by force. If lever is zero, then torque is zero
What does the torque do to the rotor?
It rotates the rotor. Torque is produced by the magnetic force on the current induced in the squirrel cage. This magnetic force acts as torque on the rotor as a tangential force that makes it spin.
How to convert angular torque in to linear torquewith Example..?
Firstly could you be so kind to explain to me what "linear torque" is. I'm pretty confident that torque = force x radius at which that force is applied, thus the term linear torque cannot exist. Also torque is simply the angular version of force, I'm going to take a stab at this and assume that what you really want to know is how to convert torque to force. Since the equation defining torque is T=FR, where T is torque, F is force and R is the radius at which that force is applied, then the force (by simple algebraic rearranging) is simply T/R.
How do you Convert Torque Nm to Force N?
Torque T=Nmsin x, thus Force N=T/msin x. If sin x is zero Torque is zero and Force is zero.
