10. Torque vector is directed along (a) the tangent to the circular path (b) the inward radius (c) the outward radius (d) the axis of rotation​

Answer»

TORQUE is DIRECTED along the tangent to the circular path.

  • Torque is the force that causes an object to rotate about an axis.
  • We know that force causes linear acceleration while torque causes angular acceleration.
  • Torque T = r F sin α, where T is the torques, r is the RADIUS, F is the force and α is the ANGLE between F and lever arm, THEREFORE, torque acts along the tangent of the circular path.
