Hi Buickanddeere,

One small clarification. Torque is not work and is more precisely indicated in terms of lb-ft and not ft-lb. While it is common practice to refer to torque as ft-lb, it is not technically correct. This is to distinguish it from the work term of ft-lb, which is of course, a force acting through a distance; something moving, as you correctly indicate. Torque is nothing more than a force multiplied by a moment arm. It is a force term, not a work term.
