Torque

Introduction to Torque Calculator

Torque, denoted by the Greek letter tau (τ), represents the rotational force applied with a specific lever arm. It is calculated by multiplying the applied force F with the lever arm distance r. The result provides insight into the ability of the force to induce rotation around a pivot point.

Parameter usage:

• F= applied force
• r= lever arm distance

Example valid values:

• F= 10
• r= 5

Output:

• τ= torque

Data validation

The force and distance should be greater than zero.

Summary

This calculator provides the torque generated by a force when applied at a specific distance from the axis of rotation.
