Difference between Couple,Torque and moment of force. What is Couple? what is Torque?....Explained.

-
There is very small difference between Couple and Torque or moment of force. It is very easy to understand. Before study about Couple we must learn about Torque or Moment of force.

 Basically Torque is an angular force.Couple is two forces acting parallel,opposite direction with same magnitude. In clear language,couple means two, two torque act in a object in opposite direction. Moment of force is effect to move the body.

Definition:

  • Torque: Torque is a rotational force that tends to cause rotation around an axis. Mathematically, Torque is product of force and Radius. Torque=F*R*sinθ.




  Examples of Torque: open the door, wheels in vehicles


  • Couple:Two forces F and -F having the same magnitude, parallel lines of action and opposite sense are said to form a couple. Mathematically, product of distance and magnitude of parallel forces. Couple=D*F*sin𝛉  




Example: steering of vehicle, pedal of cycle.

Difference between moment and couple:

 The couple is a pure turning effect which may be moved anywhere in its own plane or into a parallel plane without any change of its effect on the body, but the moment of a force must include a description of the reference axis about which the moment is taken.

BURNING DESIRE TO SUCCESS Burning desire to success is the starting point of all achievements One of the most common causes of failure is the habit of quitting when one is overtaken temporary defeat. The wright brothers dreamed of a machine that would fly through the air.Now may see evidence all over the world that they dreamed soundly. "I bargained with Life for a penny, And Life would pay no more, However I begged at evening  When I counted my scanty store. For a life is a just employer, He gives you what you ask, But once you have set the wages, Why, you must you bear a task. "I worked for a menial's hire, Only to learn, dismayed, That any wage I had asked of life, Life would have willingly paid." These lines were say the universal truth.         You must increase your desire to achieve the success. No one ever is defeated until defeated has been accepted as reality. The methods by which desire for succ...

How is Engineering nowadays? Engineering: The branch of science and technology concerned with the design, building, and use of engines, machines, and stru ctures. Engineering How are you "Engineering"? Basically, Engineering field is very down nowadays.1.5 Million Engineers pass out in India every year.They expect a good job but they didn't get that kind job. Most of students hate the engineering field because they think that " If I studied engineering, I didn't got any job.If you studied well with  desire, you will placed in a good company.Computer science field was in the top in Engineering field. Why the field is down?: Demand of engineers decreases gradually in industries.Engineering is become business in India.There are number of private collages trap students from their adds but education quality is zero. Sales of vehicles is down now is a main problem. It is due to increase in cost of petrol and diesel so Many people expect the ele...
