Not exactly,torque is the force that affects rotational motion; the greater the torque, the greater the change in rotational motion. It is always specified with regard to the axis of rotation.

Can a small force produce a greater torque than a large force?
Can a small force ever exert a greater torque than a larger force? Explain yes it is possible if small force is applied with a larger moment arm(lever arm) as compared to larger force.
Can a small force ever exert a greater torque than a larger force?
Of course. Torque is the product of the (force) times (its distance from the axle). If the force you have doesn't produce enough torque, you simply apply the same force farther from the axle, and that increases the torque. That's why, if you can't crack the nut with the wrench you have and the strength you have, you slip a piece of pipe over the handle and make the wrench look twice as long. In that way, you have temporarily transformed the wrench into a "Persuader", and the nut is highly likely then to be persuaded. If you can arrange for the small force to be exerted at a long enough distance from the axle, it can apply as much or more torque than the larger force can when applied closer in.
How does a large force produce a small torque and it is possible for a small force to produce a large torque?
Torque is the product of (force) x (distance from the center of rotation).So with a distance from the center that's large enough or small enough,any force can produce as much or as little torque as you want.
How it is possible for a large force to produce only a small or even zero torque?
if large force is applied keeping the minimum moment arm then it produces a very small torque or even no torque.
Is the gravity greater?
Not only Greater, but GREATEST ! ! !Gravity per unit of mass is a small force.

If everything exerts a force why do you not get pulled by it?
The objects with bigger masses exert more pulling force. However, even though all the matter around us exert a force, their masses are too small for them to exert a 'feelable' force. But yes, they do exert a force, but its negligible.
How is it possible for a smaller force to hava a large torque?
Yes, it is possible for a smaller force to have a large torque because it is usually located at a much greater distance from the center of rotation. Torque is calculated by multiplying the distance by the force.

Does the Sun exert a gravitational force on the Moon?
yes, everything exerts a force on each other, no matter how small or big the force is, there is still a force.
Does the taliban have any power?
Yes, in small circles. They exert force on locals when not in the prescence of coallition troops.
Can you think of two particles which do not exert force on each other?
Two particles which do not exert gravitational force on each other will be mass less particles. But particle has even a litle mass. Hence we cannot find two particles which do not exert gravitational force on each other.
What objects exert gravitational force?
Absolutely ALL objects does this. Large objects, much force. Small objects, little force. Black holes, Humoungus force.
Is the gravity greater?
Not only Greater, but GREATEST ! ! !Gravity per unit of mass is a small force.
Is torque produce in satellite due to gravity?
A satellite small enough to be treated as a point particle. Can earth's gravity exert a torque on a satellite about the earth's center? Torque causes an object to rotate around a specific point. Torque = force * perpendicular distance and Torque = moment of Inertia * angular acceleration. When a satellite is launched, it is forced up to a specific distance from the earth's center and accelerated to a specific velocity parallel to the surface of the earth. The satellite continues moving in circular orbit. The force which causes the satellite to move in a circular path is the gravitational force caused by the mass of the earth, mass of the satellite, and distance from the center of mass of the earth to the center of mass of the satellite. This force causes the direction of the velocity to rotate so it is always tangent to the circle. This force produces the torque which makes causes the satellite to rotate so the direction of its velocity is always perpendicular to the direction of the gravitational force.
