बल आघूर्ण (Torque)
- Torque is the measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis.
- Force is what causes an object to accelerate in linear kinematics.
- Unit : N-m
- Similarly, torque is what causes an angular acceleration.
- Hence, torque can be defined as the rotational equivalent of linear force.
- The point where the object rotates is called the axis of rotation.
- In physics, torque is simply the tendency of a force to turn or twist.
- Different terminologies such as moment or moment of force are interchangeably used to describe torque.
