Best Answer

When ever you attach a gear with less teeth to a gear with more teeth, thus increasing your gear ratio and the speed in which the gear with less teeth rotate, the amount of torque in your gear combination decreases. This can also be expressed as a ratio, which happens to be the inverse of a gear ratio, meaning if your gear ratio was lets say...

1:5, the ratio for the amount of torque is 5:1, meaning you receive five times less the amount of torque, to increase your speed five times as fast.

What is a torsion dynamometer?

A dynamometer is a device that measures rotational speed. A torsion dynamometer is a dynamometer that measures torque, or the force with which something rotates.


What does the torque do to the rotor?

It rotates the rotor. Torque is produced by the magnetic force on the current induced in the squirrel cage. This magnetic force acts as torque on the rotor as a tangential force that makes it spin.


If a body is rotating is it necessarily being acted upon by an external torque?

No. Torque is required only for producing angular acceleration. A body rotates with constant angular velocity if no external torque acts on it.


How does an induction motor develop torque?

The shaft of an AC induction motor rotates because of the torque created by the interaction between the magnetic field of the stator and the magnetic field of the rotor.

Where do you use torque while driving a car?

Torque is used when taking off or pulling a load. The more torque you have the faster the car will take off.

the ford lightning is faster with more horse power and torque.


Why a door can be closed or opened easily by applying force at any point away from the pivot?

When a force rotates something about an axis is called moment of force or torque. Torque = Length of lever arm x Force From this equation you can see that as the length of the lever arm increases, the torque increases. That is why if you try to push or open the door near the pivot, you will need more force to rotate it. Hope this helps.


What is a torque transducer?

A transducer is an electronic device that measures something -- voltage, temperature or in this case torque. Torque is the force applied to twist something, like the twisting one does to tighten a screw, bolt or jar lid. So, a torque transducer is an electronic device that measures the amount of torque being applied to something.
