An Introductory Torque Wrench Problem

[@seannov112995]

Started watching about 6 years ago in high school physics, about to finish out my bachelors in mechanical engineering. Just wanted to thank you for getting me so excited about physics in the beginning and getting me through the rough start I had.

[@FlippingPhysics]

Thank you for coming back six years later and telling me this. Made my day!

[@NadavFedida]

This easily has to be the best physics video on YT. Well played to all 4 of you.

[@FlippingPhysics]

Thanks!

[@SaifUllah-uy6kz]

Thanks for presenting such problems in fun and entertaining way. Hats off to you for your such hard work. Thank you all once again.

[@FlippingPhysics]

You are welcome!

[@blastunlimited]

thanks you so so so much for this precious videos you deserve a trophy for being the savior of us all . ALL MY RESPECT TO YOU SIR

[@OscarRamirez-jv2hj]

Thank you so much. I now realize that I can actually understand physics through watching your videos that are so easy to understand.

[@FlippingPhysics]

Happy to help!

[@omranalkhleefalhamad6756]

you are the only people who deserve millions and millions of followers !

[@squirrlykinssquirrel1359]

I like your eye bro!

[@m4t4m0r0s]

The way you explain everything with examples is incredible!!! Just what we need for physics.

[@FlippingPhysics]

Thanks. This makes me happy.

[@bern1223]

i feel like u learn more in classes with smaller number of students lol

[@suneethaproductions204]

this is the best in youtube

[@FlippingPhysics]

Thank you!

[@faus585]

Really helpful + stupendous acting :)

[@FlippingPhysics]

Thanks a lot 😊

[@МариСазонова-р8в]

Great example and explanation! Thank you!

[@FlippingPhysics]

You are welcome!

[@thunderboltross5308]

enjoyed learning with you

[@hemavarun7170]

Wonderful I understand clearly and perfect. I am also getting intrest to listen more

[@FlippingPhysics]

Great!

[@nasirkhalid6770]

Thank you very much.

[@FlippingPhysics]

You are welcome as well.

[@franciscoisidro3622]

why did you used Tau 1 on the derived equation not tau 2? I know that they are both equal but why Mr. P?

[@AyalaMrC]

My father always called it a "plumber's helper"; not very helpful if it bends your wrench, though. 8~/

[@ivand.fababaer4007]

What is the relationship of torque and the distance of application? And the relationship of torque and the angle of application? I Need help please!!

[@carultch]

Torque is proportional to the distance between the point of application and the axis of rotation. For the angle, the largest possible torque occurs when the force and the position vector to the point of application are perpendicular. For angles other than a perpendicular angle between the two vectors, the sine of the angle is what matters. Another way to look at it, is to draw the *line of action* of the force. Imagine a line that passes through the point of application and extends infinitely far in both directions. What is the minimum distance between this line of action and the axis of rotation? That is how r*sin(theta) comes in to play, since r*sin(theta) is the distance to the line of action.

@@carultch thank so much ❤️

[@abhikkumarjha8945]

Hello I am from India and These all lectures made my concepts very clear when compared to lectures of our Indian boring teachers...😁😁

[@FlippingPhysics]

I am so glad to clear up topics you were confused about. (And glad to know you find my videos entertaining!)

[@victoriamartins3368]

You're great!

[@atompowe2122]

i love that so much

[@Jacobtaylor1775]

I love my cheater pipe. I have a threaded coupling in the center so I can cheat a little extra if need be. PHYSICS=real life

[@FlippingPhysics]

Thanks for sharing!

[@SimchaWaldman]

00:26 04:28 Seriously: who was the IDIOT who designed the adjustable wrench, such that its lever is so NOT PARALLEL to the force applied on the screw/nut?

[@abhisheaksharma3765]

Awesome
