How may you increase an applied torque without increasing the applied force?

You can increase the applied torque without increasing the applied force by increasing the length of the lever arm or by changing the angle at which the force is applied. This increases the moment arm, which in turn increases the torque for the same amount of force.


What is the unit of force used in torque?

(Any unit of length) x (any unit of force) is a perfectly good unit of torque.You may need to use a few conversion factors if you want it to work together withanybody else's normal system of units, but it definitely has dimensions of torque.


Would a 9-N force applied 2 m from the fulcrum lift the weight?

Assuming the fulcrum is at the center, the weight would be lifted if the clockwise torque (force x distance) applied by the 9-N force is greater than the counterclockwise torque of the weight. If the weight is closer to the fulcrum, it may not be lifted, even with a 9-N force.


What happens to the elastic band when the force is increased?

When the force applied to an elastic band is increased, the band stretches further and its length increases. This is due to the elastic properties of the band, which allow it to deform under applied load. If the force is too great, the band may reach its elastic limit and permanently deform or break.


What is shaft power and how is it different from torque of a motor?

Fundamentally: power = torque x rpm Power and torque both make noise, but they are different in how they are measured and what they mean. Torque is not related to time. Power is a time-related rate. Most engineers talk about torque when they need to understand how much force is applied from a dead stop. It is force X radial distance. Huge torque may have very little power (in HP or Watts) behind it. Imagine a really strong guy with a really long wrench unfastening a bolt. He can develop lots of torque, but ultimately he can put out very little power (about 1/4 HP or 185 W for humans) over an extended time.

What do you mean by torque in bikes?

Torque is a twisting force applied to an object, like a wheel or a crankshaft. Note that motion is not required for torque to exist! If you stand on a lug wrench that is on a frozen lug bolt, you are applying a torque to that bolt even though there may be no movement. For our purposes, we will consider that torque is measured in pounds-force feet (lbf-ft) meaning the equivalent of a given force, in pounds, acting on the end of a lever of length in feet. For example, standing with 180 pounds body weight on a lug wrench one foot long yields 180 lbf-ft of torque. A child of 90 pounds standing on a two-foot lug wrench applies the same torque.

What the difference between Torque and Work?

They are completely unrelated. Don't get confused by the fact that the units look similar. Work units may be force (N) times distance (m); so a Nm is a work unit. Torque units may be distance (m) times force (N); so mN is a torque unit. Look similar, but they describe different things.


What human body part may produce torque?

Any time there is a force, there can be torque.


How does torque differ from force?

Torque is the tendency of a force to rotate the body to which it is applied.Torque is always specified with regard to the axis of rotation. It is equal to the magnitude of the component of the force lying in the plane perpendicular to the axis of rotation, multiplied by the shortest distance between the axis and the direction of the force component. Torque is the force that affects rotational motion; the greater the torque, the greater the change in this motion. Whereas,force is the agency that alters the direction, speed, or shape that a body would exhibit in the absence of any external influence.It is a vector quantity, having both magnitude and direction. Force is commonly explained in terms of Newton's laws of motion. All known natural forces can be traced to the fundamental interactions. Force is measured in newtons (N).

What is drag torque?

Drag torque refers to the resistance encountered by a rotating component, such as a motor or gearbox, due to friction and other forces acting against it. It is the torque required to overcome this resistance and initiate or maintain rotation. In practical applications, drag torque can influence the efficiency and performance of machinery, as higher drag torque may lead to increased energy consumption and wear. Understanding drag torque is essential for proper equipment design and operational efficiency.


What size torque wrench to remove cavalier front bearing?

A torque wrench is not required to remove the bearing. It is required to apply the correct loading to a nut or bolt when assembling. Because the fixture may have been in place for some time a greater force may be needed for removal, because of corrosion or dirt, than the original torque setting applied.


Why is my torque wrench not clicking when I use it?

Your torque wrench may not be clicking because it could be out of calibration, the internal mechanism may be damaged, or the torque setting may be too low for the fastener you are tightening.


How do Torque is related with speed?

Torque is a measure of how much a force acting on an object causes that object to rotate. Speed is how fast something is going. Another way to think of this is as how far you can go in a certain amount of time.


What if you go to torque to a specific torque and bolt snaps?

The bolt could have been faulty, or the torque wrench may not be calibrated.
