Just thought that I would say that I don't necessarily agree that Torque is a Force. That is like comparing apples and oranges. A force is the mass of an object multiplied by its acceleration. It has magnitude and direction and has units of Newtons or pound force. A torque is the applied force multiplied by the perpendicular distance between where the force is applied and the center of rotation. It has units of Newton-meters or pound-feet. If there is a 10 pound force applied to a gear tooth tangent to its circular profile and the gear is 2 feet in diameter, the torque applied to that gear is 20 lb.ft.
