Static torque is basically an applied force, but applied about a centre instead of in a straight line.

Dynamic torque, such as that produced by an engine, is a force translated from a straight line (piston) to a circular path (crank) and since its a force at a velocity, its rated as power.

Which torque is absent in energy meter why?

The torque absent in an energy meter is the viscous torque. This type of torque is not present because energy meters are designed to measure the energy consumed or generated by a system, and viscous torque is a resistive torque generated due to viscous fluid flow which does not contribute to the energy measurement.


Why is torque potential energy and why?

The way I understand it, torque is unrelated to energy, despite the fact that torque and energy happen to have the same dimensions, namely force x distance (in units: newton x meters). In other words, torque is not an energy; it is a different kind of measurement.


What type of energy is torque?

rotational energy


What happen when energy meter when the braking torque is less than the driving torque?

it intial power is low and did not produce much energy


Define torque.derive its unit?

Torque is vector energy. Physicists have mistakenly defined energy as a scalar. Energy is a quaternion consisting of scalar energy (potential) and vector energy (torque). The units of torque is Joules or Newton meter, the same as work or energy..Here is the correct definition of Energy = FD = -F.D + FxD where F is force vector in Newtons and D is displacement vector in meters.F.D = - FDcos(Angle) is the Work or scalar energy and FxD=FDsin(Angle) is the Torque or vector energy. If the angle between the force and displacement is 90 degrees there is only torque; if the angle is a zero degrees there is only work or scalar energy ; if the angle is not a multiple of these two angles there is both scalar and vector energy; work and torque. E.g FD= -Fdcos(45) + Fd sin(45) gives work and torque.


What is an energy that take place in the fan?

torque.


Is weight different to torque?

Yes, weight is a measurement and torque is power. (just think kinetic energy)


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.


What is the importance of torque in cars?

Torque is a form of energy, rotational energy. Rotational energy ultimately turns the wheels on the road. The larger the torque the easier wheels turn against resistance. Rotation is also important in airplanes, windmills and ships. Torque T=FxR where F is the force and R is the radius of the "wheel." In general Energy is E= -FRcos x + FRsin x, Torque is FRsin x, the vector energy and FRcos x is called the "work energy". It would be more reasonable to call them real and vector energy, rather than work and torque and together they make quaternion energy.


Where does a pile driver get the energy to perform work?

Which electrical device changes electrical energy into mechanical energy?

The motor changes electrical energy into mechanical (torque) energy.


What factors affect the magnitude of torque?

The factors that affect the magnitude of torques are three: the force F, the displacement D and the sine of the angle A between them. Torque T= FD sin A. In Nature, variables are quaternions, and consist of a scalar and a vector part. This fact has not made its way into science and physics yet. It is like pre-spacetime physics when we had space And Time. Today we have scalar energy also called work And vector torque. Torque is really the energy vector. In mechanical energy we have energy or work being force times displacement E=F.D. Torque in this system is T= FxD where A indicates the sine of the angle between the force and the displacement. T= FDsin A. Energy is also correctly seen to be Work= F.D= - FDcos A. From this you see that vector energy is in general a quaternion: E= FD = -FDcos A + FD sin A. The minus sign indicates negative energy called exergy (out energy like exercise) when the displacement and the force are in the same direction. Energy or positive energy is when the force and displacement are opposite then you have to put energy in, work. If angle A is zero then there is only a scalar energy. if angle A is 90 degrees, thee is only torque or vector energy. I the angle is 45 degrees there is scalar and vector energy.
