Torque Using Angle

Torque is rotational force.

Torque equals the product of the force applied, the distance from the axis and the angle the force makes with the lever arm.

Formula

QuantityVariable["τ", "Torque"] == QuantityVariable["F", "Force"]*QuantityVariable["r", "Distance"]*Sin[QuantityVariable["θ", "Angle"]]
