The document discusses torque and its relationship to force and moment arm. Torque is defined as the tendency to produce rotational motion and is calculated as the product of a force and its moment arm. Several examples are provided to illustrate calculating torque based on given forces and moment arms. The importance of moment arm in producing torque is that torque depends on both the magnitude of force and its distance from the axis of rotation.

TORQUE
Think of these! Why is it easier to open the tight lid of a can of paint using a long screw driver than a 5-peso coin? Why are door knobs placed at the other end of the door opposite the hinges and not at the middle? Why is it easier to maneuver a bicycle with handle bar than one without?
The answer to all is torque.

TORQUE is the tendency to produce a change in rotational motion. It is also called moment of force.
Rotational motion is affected by both the magnitude of force F and its moment arm (also called torque arm ) r . Thus we define torque as the product of a force and its moment arm.
Mathematically: = Fr Where: (tau) = torque( in Newton-meter, N-m or pound-foot, lb-ft) F = force (in Newton, N or pound, lb) r = moment arm (in meter, m or foot, ft) Torque = Force x moment arm
Sign Convention The directions of torque depends on whether it tends to produce clockwise or counterclockwise rotation about an axis. We take counterclockwise rotation positive and clockwise rotation negative .
F F (-) (+) (+) (-) F Clockwise torque Counterclockwise torque
Illustrative Example 1. Draw and label the moment arm of force F about an axis at point A and point B in the figure below? What is the magnitude of the moment arm? What is the resultant torque about axis A and B? A F B 2 m 3 m
Solution The moment arm about point A is the perpendicular distance from point A to the line of action of the force F A F B 2 m 3 m The moment arm about point B is the perpendicular distance from point B to the line of action of the force F
Illustrative Example 2. Draw and label the moment arm of force F about an axis at point A in the figure below? What is the magnitude of the moment arm? A F B 2 m 3 m 30 属
2. Solution The moment arm about point A is the perpendicular distance from point A to the line of action of force F. A F B 2 m 3 m 30 属 Its magnitude is : r = L sin 30 属 = 2m (0.500) = 1.0 m
Illustrative Example 3. Find the moment arm about axis B. A F B 2 m 3 m 30 属
3. Solution The moment arm about point B is the perpendicular distance from point B to the line of action of force F. A F B 2 m 3 m 30 属 Its magnitude is : r = L sin 30 属 = 3m (0.500) = 1.5 m
Illustrative Examples 4. If force F is 100 N, what is the resultant torque about an axis A? What is the resultant torque about axis B? A F B 2 m 3 m 30 属
4. Solution A F B 2 m 3 m 30 属 Since r A = 1.0 m and F = 100 N T A = Fr A = 100 N (1.0 m) = 100N-m r = 1.0 m -
4. Solution Since r B = 1.5 m and F = 100 N T B = Fr B = 100 N (1.5 m) = 150N-m A F B 2 m 3 m 30 属 r = 1.5 m
Illustrative Example 5. What if force F is applied directly towards point B, what would be the resultant torque about axis A and B? A F B 2 m 3 m
Sum it up. If you are to explain torque to someone who does not study physics, how would you explain it so that she/he can readily understand it? How would you explain to him/her the importance of the moment arm in producing torque?
Check your understanding. Why is it easier to open a tight lid of a can of paint using a long screw driver than with a coin? Why is the door knob always located at the opposite end of the door hinge? Why is it not placed at middle of the door?
Which of the following will produce the greatest torque? D= 1000 N C=600 N A= 1000 N B=150 N 2.0 m 3.5 m 2.5 m 8.0 m
Which of the following will produce the greatest torque? D= 1000 N C=600 N A= 1000 N B=450 N 2.0 m 3.5 m 2.5 m 8.0 m 20 属 60 属 T = 1000N (2.0m)sin60 属 = 1732 N-m T = 450N (5.50 m) = 2475 N-m T = 600N (5.50m)sin 20属 = 1129 N-m T = 1000N (0.0m) = 0
Assignment A. Answer these in your assignment notebook. What is the 2 nd Condition of Equilibrium? How is it different from the 1st condition of Equilibrium?
B. Figure 1 shows an object with several forces acting on it. The pivot point is at O. If F 1 = 10 N, and is at a distance of 0.25 m from O, where油 1 = 30 属 F 2 = 7.0 N, acting perpendicular to the object, at a distance of 1.25 m from O F 3 = 12 N, is 0.60 m from O, and acts at油 3 = 40 属 from the horizontal Find the total (net) torque on the object.
Torque is greater with longer moment arm. How could this idea be applied to you when you are in trouble? Or when someone is in need? Did MCS ever extend a helping hand to you when you are in need? At your end, how do you support the school in helping others in need? Think about this.
