Torque steer is peculiar to front-wheel drive cars reflecting imbalance when power is sent to the front wheels. It causes a shifting sensation, moving the steering wheel to the left or to the right. It isn't a safety issue, rather it is an annoyance, one that automakers are rectifiying by making use of torque vectoring control, what sends braking power to the inner front wheel as needed.

Does cold air expand?
No. air actually contracts as it gets colder, while air expands as it gets warmer. For example, lightning is so hot, it causes the air to heat up intensly. This rise in temperature causes the air to expand so fast, that it breaks the sound barrier. This causes a sonic boom, and that is the thunder that you hear after lightning strikes.

What are the most common causes of fire in an engineering workshop?

How are echo soundings used by ships?
Ships use echo soundings to find object, ice bergs and other dangers to the ship wilst at see. Its like bats, the ship sends out a high pitched sound, and detects for echos. If it gets one, it will show up on the radar, and the shipd captain/navigator shall steer around it.
What can cause a vehicle to steer improperly and feel like it is drifting after shifting gears?
you are probably refering to torque steer if you vehicle is frt whl drive
Your car pulls to the right only when you acelerate hard whats wrong?
You fail to list what vehicle, and how severe it is. So, I can only tell you that if you have a car with an engine developing quite a bit of horsepower and it is front wheel drive, (FWD), you may be experiencing what is commonly referred to as Torque Steer. Torque steer is common in FWD vehicles with high output engines. Some worse than others. Depending on the severity of the torque steer it may be normal or it may not be. Make sure that your tires are at the proper PSI as listed in your owner's manual and on the driver's door post. A slight amount of torque steer is normal, but you may want to have a professional evaluate if yours is above normal, and you have a problem.You fail to list what vehicle, and how severe it is.

What causes accelerated rotation?
Torque does.
Is it ok to drive a front wheel drive with snow cable on one wheel?
you will probably get a lot of Torque steer
Why do some helicopters have a small tail rotor?
Tail rotors are to correct the effect of engine torque and help steer the helicopter
Car pulls to one side while accelerating?
If it just does it a little its probably torque steer. Its common in fwd vehicles.
What causes a steer to be continually mounted by others?
The lack of testosterone as a result of being a Steer gives it an ever so slightly "Thai lady boy" appeal.
What is a torque meter?
A torque sensor, or torque meter, is a device that measures the torque on rotating systems, usually wheels. Torque, in this case, is the twisting force that causes rotation, such as that applied when you pedal a bicycle.
What might cause a car to steer to the right or left during acceleration only?
Make sure the tires are aired correctly and if it still does it it is normal torque steer caused by the axels being of different length and a powerful engine.
Where all torque is used in a bike?
Torque is used all over the bike. Everything that's bolted or screwed on has used some torque at assembly. When you're pedalling, the drive train parts will see torque that gets converted into movement forward. When you move the bars to steer there's a bit of torque there too. If the bike has hub brakes, there's torque being developed when braking.

Nothing your just weird
