aiglosicicle SG As above... the units are the same. even the formula is the same but some question asked me what's the difference... i'm stuck lol.
eagle SG A moment is the turning effect of a force. A torque is a rotational force. At least that is what I think it is. Something like that I guess
unclebutcher SG moment: is the turning force of ONE force to a pivot point torque: 2 equal forces turning together , no pivot point go read your lecture notes for the exact defniton i too lazy to
^tamago^ SG first u learn moment, then apply the concept to torque and angular momentum. torque is more like a representation of a force.
mahawarrior SG Momment about a point is the product of the force applied and the perpendicular distance from the line of action of the force to the pivot. Torque of a couple consist of two parallel and opposite force whose line of action does not coincide and produces a turning effect only.
