How about turbomachinery which drive generators which induce electric currents which drive machines/pumps? Jet engines that power aircraft and piston combustion engines that propel cars, buses, railroad locomotives, boats/ships. How about bicycles? Mechanical clocks and watches.blaziken's_charizard said:

]A turning moment is a force applied to an object that causes it to rotate around an axis. In everyday life, turning moments can be seen in actions like opening a door, turning a steering wheel, or using a wrench to loosen a bolt.
Examples of turning moments in everyday life include using a screwdriver to tighten a screw, using a can opener to open a can, and using a key to unlock a door.
The turning moment of an object can be calculated by multiplying the force applied to the object by the distance from the axis of rotation to the point where the force is applied. The unit for turning moment is newton-meters (Nm).
Understanding the concept of turning moments can help you apply the right amount of force at the right distance to complete tasks more efficiently. For example, using a longer wrench to loosen a tight bolt will require less force than using a shorter wrench.
Some tips for applying turning moments in everyday life include using tools with longer handles for tasks that require more turning force, using lubricants to reduce friction and make turning easier, and standing in a stable position to prevent slipping or losing balance while applying a turning moment.
