Well, if work(energy) is force x distance. We know that every force has an equal and opposite counterpart so the opposite of this work always exists. Where a force is doing work, energy is conserved. I hope

actually, I think I've been able to clarify it as the larger lever arm allowing a greater acceleration with less force.

hmmm, So in the sense of loosening a nut with a wrench. The same force being applied with a greater lever arm is a lot easier. How would you explain this? Maybe without using torque? just in terms of linear motion equations would be helpful.

Thanks for your replies. Very helpful.

Hey, I'm looking for an explanation of the why we observe T = F * d In the sense of two people applying a force to a lever arm and the person closer to the pivot point requiring more force to keep the torque in equilibrium. I can only find explanations in the sense of work and energy...
