Noun
  1. A twisting force that tends to cause rotation


  1. torsion: a twisting force
  2. Torque, also called moment or moment of force (see the terminology below), is the tendency of a force to rotate an object about an axis, fulcrum, or pivot. Just as a force is a push or a pull, a torque can be thought of as a twist.

  7. A torc, also spelled torq or torque, is a large, usually rigid, neck ring usually made from strands of metal twisted together. ...
  8. A rotational or twisting effect of a force; a moment of force. Torque is measured as an equivalent straight line force multiplied by the distance from the axis of rotation, hence the SI unit Newton-metre (Nm) or imperial unit foot-pound (ft.lbf); Alternative spelling of torc; twist or turn something
  9. The rotation of a tooth on the long axis moving the root of the tooth in a buccal, lingual or labial direction.
  10. A rotary force. A reaction to the turning effort supplied by the engine is an example.
  11. is to turn the bow to one side when aiming or releasing the arrow.
  12. Any rotation or twisting motion of the bow in the horizontal plane.
  13. The rotational movement used during application or removal of a continuous thread closure from a container.
  14. in simple terms, the force that turns the rear wheels [excerpt from 1959 press release]. Used as name of publication of Michigan Region CCCA.
  15. A rotational moment; it is a measure of how much twisting is applied to a fastener. The units used to measure torque are in the form of force times length. Usually measured in newton-metres (Nm) if metric units are used or pounds feet (lb-ft) when imperial units are used.
  16. A torsional moment or couple. This term typically refers to the driving couple of a machine or motor.
