The turning effect of a
force in a body is called moment of force (or torque). Force also produces
rotational motion.The perpendicular distance of line of force from axis of
rotation is called moment arm.The product of force and moment arm is called
moment of force or torque. It is a vector
quantity.The direction of torque is determined by the right hand rule.Thursday, May 28, 2020
