Lesson: Torque of a Force Physics

In this lesson, we will learn how to use the formula T = Fd to calculate the torque of a force about a rotation axis, and also to calculate the net torque.

Lesson Plan

Students will be able to

use the following formula in all combinations: torque about a point due to a force = the force the perpendicular distance of the point of action of the force from the point,
recognize that the unit of torque is the newton-meter.
