Describe how the magnitude of a torque depends on the magnitude of the lever arm and the angle the force vector makes with the lever arm; Determine the sign (positive or negative) of a torque using the right-hand rule; Calculate individual torques about a common axis and sum them to find the net torque
Calculating torque (1) Choose a sign convention (e.g. anti-clockwise +ve), then decide in which direction force is pulling or pushing lever. Write that sign in front of your answer. Method 1: If you're given r and θ, use formula for torque (magnitude) τ = r F sinθ (Note: sinθ = sinφ, ∴ it doesn’t matter which angle you use)
14 Απρ 2021 · Introduction. Torque will be used to quantify forces applied to bodies which can rotate. Previously, in the particle model, it didn’t matter where on a body we applied a force. However, with rigid bodies, that is no longer true. (Things are no longer point particles.) Torque. The magnitude of the force.
LEVER ARM: The lever arm is the perpendicular distance from the axis of rotation to the line of action. Finding the lever arm is usually one of the hardest parts of torque problems. Start by finding ‘r’, which is the distance from the axis of rotation to the point where the force is applied.
NOTE: here the lever arm = (force position - axis position). If signs are carefully kept, the sign of the force times the lever arm sign will successfully give the sign of the resulting torque.
TORQUE – Greek letter tau . • To make an object rotate, a force must be applied in the right place. • the combination of force and point of application is called TORQUE. • The lever arm L is the distance from the axis of rotation to the point where the force is applied.
