Torque (Physics)

Torque is a measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis. It is a fundamental concept in the study of physics, playing a critical role in areas such as mechanical engineering and rotational dynamics. Coursera's Torque catalogue helps you grasp this essential physics concept, expanding your understanding of how forces impact the motion of objects. You'll explore the mathematical representations of torque, learn to calculate it in various scenarios, and understand its role in physical systems like levers, gears, and pulleys. By delving into the principles of torque, you will enhance your proficiency in physics and related fields, apply these concepts in practical situations, and gain a deeper understanding of the world around you.
