vääntötulot
Vääntötulot, also known as torque or moment of force, is a measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis. It is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction. The direction of the torque is perpendicular to the plane in which the force is applied and the axis of rotation.
The magnitude of the torque is calculated by multiplying the magnitude of the force applied by the
Torque (τ) = Force (F) × Perpendicular Distance (r)
The SI unit for torque is the Newton meter (Nm), which is equivalent to one joule.
Vääntötulot is a fundamental concept in physics and engineering, used to analyze the rotational motion of objects.
