Torque = Force x Distance
eg i sit on a bench 2 metres from the left supporting force. I way 60kg. I am then creating a clockwise torque of 60 x 9.8 x 2 (9.8 because that is equal to gravity)
so 60 x 9.8 is my weight force (force) which is 588 Newtons. To calculate torque I then multiply that by the distance of 2 metres. So i would be creating a torque of 1176Nm.
P.S a common misconception is that a scale like the one in your bathroom measures weight. That's wrong, the scale measures mass. Weight is a force and must be measured in Newtons. That is why i multiplied by gravity (9.8). mass x gravity = weight.

What type of gear is used for transmitting power between parallel shafts?
The type of gear used for transmitting power between parallel shafts is typically a spur gear. Spur gears have straight teeth and are mounted on parallel shafts, allowing them to efficiently transfer rotational motion and torque. They are commonly used in various mechanical systems due to their simplicity and effectiveness in providing a direct drive between shafts. Other options include helical gears, which can also transmit power between parallel shafts with smoother operation and reduced noise.
Comparison between fluid coupling and torque converter?
They are of similar design, but a fluid coupling simply transmits torque (with some frictional loss), while a torque converter amplifies torque, similar to a reduction gear.
Is there anyway it increase the power out put of a motor?
The power output of a motor can be changed by the use of gears. Gears can be used to increase torque by reducing the speed of the output shaft by placing a large gear on the output shaft, coupled to a smaller gear. Conversely, by using a small gear on the output shaft, coupled to a larger gear, the speed can be increased with a reduction in torque.
What is the relatiionship between torque and speed in gear trains?
I'm guessing you're talking about a disc viscometer, in which case the higher the viscosity, the higher the measured torque.
How to find the torque of a gear?
To find the torque of a gear, you can use the formula: Torque Force x Distance. First, determine the force applied to the gear. Then, measure the distance from the point where the force is applied to the center of the gear. Multiply the force by the distance to calculate the torque.
Diffence between the drive gear and the driven gear?
The driver gear has the input torque, and the driven gear has the output torque.
What is the difference between a driver gear and a driven gear?
The driver gear has the input torque, and the driven gear has the output torque.

How does gear ratio affect torque in a mechanical system?
The gear ratio in a mechanical system affects torque by changing the relationship between the input and output speeds of the system. A higher gear ratio increases torque at the expense of speed, while a lower gear ratio increases speed at the expense of torque.
How do you use torque in a sentence?
My car has lots of torque in first gear.
How can a set of gears can increase torque?
A set of gears can increase torque through a mechanical advantage created by gear ratios. When a smaller gear (the drive gear) turns a larger gear (the driven gear), the larger gear rotates more slowly but with greater force, effectively multiplying the torque. This principle is utilized in various applications, such as vehicles, where lower gears provide higher torque for starting and climbing. The trade-off is that while torque increases, rotational speed decreases.

When you use a gear with a small diameter to drive a gear with a large diameter what is increased speed or torque?
Torque is increased on the larger, driven gear. The increase can be calculated as the ratio of the radii of the two gears. For example, if the small gear has a radius of 2 cm and the larger gear has a radius of 10 cm, the torque ratio is 10/2 (ten to two), or 5/1 (five to one). So the driven gear is producing 5 times the torque of the driving gear. The speed ratio is the reverse; the driven gear is rotating at 1/5 the speed of the driving gear.
