Learn how to use force diagrams to analyze the forces and torques acting on a rigid system. Explore how force and torque can lead to rolling in different situations.

An introduction to torque, a force that causes rotation. Understand how torque is calculated as the product of force and distance, and how it differs from work. Learn about the direction of torque and its.

A torque is the rotational equivalent of a force. When a torque is applied to an object it causes the object to rotate. Learn how forces create torques and how to calculate the net torque on a rotating object.

Understanding the Context

Torque uma medida de fora que pode causar um objeto a girar ao redor de um eixo. Assim como a fora o que faz um objeto acelerar em cinemtica linear, torque o que faz com que um objeto.
