This study guide covers torque, the rotational analog of force. It explains how to calculate torque (τ = rFsinθ), emphasizing the importance of the lever arm and the perpendicular force component. It also covers force diagrams for rotational motion and applying torque concepts to static equilibrium problems. Key terms include lever arm, perpendicular force component, and torque.
