Best Answer

Torque is the forced applied to a body part. For example, the arm curling a dumbell, there is torque which causes levers in the body to move. There is also Resistance Torque which is resistance force at some distance from the fulcrum. Also there is Effot Torque which is created by muscle pulling on bone to be moved.
