In biomechanics, torques refer to the rotational forces that cause an object to rotate around an axis. They are calculated as the product of the force applied and the distance from the axis of rotation, known as the moment arm. Torques play a crucial role in understanding movements in the body, such as joint rotations during activities like walking, running, or lifting. Analyzing torques helps in assessing the mechanical efficiency and injury risk during physical activities.
