What is difference between Torque and Work Done if Newton-Meter is Joule?
Torque=Force*Perpendicular distance Work =Force*displacement
Torque=Force*Perpendicular distance Work =Force*displacement
Torque and work are both physical quantities used to describe how forces act on objects. However, they are not the same thing. Torque is a measure of the rotational force applied to an object, while work is a measure of the amount of energy transferred to or from an object as a result of a force acting on it.
Torque and work are related in that they both involve forces acting on objects, but they are not directly interchangeable. Torque is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction, while work is a scalar quantity, meaning it only has magnitude.
No, torque and work are measured in different units. Torque is typically measured in units of Newton-meters (N·m), while work is measured in units of Joules (J).
Torque is more useful than work when dealing with rotational motion, such as in the case of a rotating object or a lever. Torque takes into account the distance from the axis of rotation, whereas work does not.
Torque and work can both affect the motion of an object, but in different ways. Torque can cause an object to rotate, while work can cause an object to move in a straight line. When both torque and work are present, they can work together to produce a combination of rotational and translational motion.
