Solution
Torque is a twisting or turning force that tends to cause rotation around an axis, which might be a center of mass or a fixed point.
Torque can also be thought of as the ability of something that is rotating, such as a gear or a shaft, to overcome turning resistance. It is generally measured in pounds per foot or newtons per meter.
