When torque is applied does it always accomplish work?

If the 'wheel' is locked and doesn't go anywhere, then there's no work. But if there's rotation, then the torque does work.


Difference between horsepower and torque?

Torque is the measurement of turning force. A wrench applies torque to a bolt. A motor or engine provides torque to do work. Horsepower is the measurement of the work done or ability to do work. This is done by taking the speed the engine is operating at (RPM) and what torque it is producing and applying a formula to give a horsepower rating.


What is the similarity between work and torque?

no


Does torque and work are equivalent?

Torque is rotational force, while work is energy transferred between objects. For example, a screw experiences mostly torque as you twist it around its axis, while a nail experiences mostly work as it is driven straight into the wood.


What are the wheel nuts torque on a 89 240sx?

anywhere from 85 pounds torque to 90 pounds torque will work, but factory is 87 pounds torque. personnally, i set mine at 100 pounds torque


Torque and work is a product of force and distance.Yet torque and work are different.What is it about the distances that makes the torque and work different?

Torque describes a rotational force, caused by a force acting at right-angles to the radius of rotation. To measure torque, we multiply the force, in newtons, by the radius of rotation in metres -so, torque is measured in newton metres (N.m).Work is measured by multiplying the force on an object by the distance through which it moves, and is measured in joules (J).The work done by force of torque (not by torque) is determined by multiplying the force, not by the radius of rotation, but by the distance the force acts around the circumference of rotation. So, if torque causes a complete rotation, then the work done by that torque will be the force times (2 pi r).One joule is equal to one newton-meter. It is a measure of work or energy.Torque can be expressed in joules (J), but they really mean joules per radian. They're talking about the amount of work this torque is capable of doing for each radian of rotation. When using radian measure mention of radian is often left out, as in this case.


Can torque have a negative value in physics?

Yes, torque can have a negative value in physics. Torque is vector energy. Torque is the vector analogue of Work involving force (F) and displacement (D) vectors and the angle (FD). For example Work W = -F.D= -|FD|cos(FD) and Toque T = FxD =|FD|sin(FD). Torque can be negative dependent on the sine(FD). Work and torque is an example of the quaternion nature of physics; for example Quaternion energy E = FD = -F.D + FxD, the real energy is called work F.D and the vector energy is called torque, FxD.


Can you use an automotive torque wrench for gun work?

What is about distance that make the torque and work different?

What the hell you talkin 'bout?Ignoring the previous answer...For torque, 'distance' refers to the radius of rotation. For work, 'distance' refers to the distance travelled in the direction of a force. To find the amount of work done by torque, multiply the force by the distance travelled around the circumference of rotation.
