Atorque acting on an object tends to produce a. equilibrium b. rotation c. linear motion d. velocity e. a center of gravity

B. rotation

The torque is defined as the twisting or turning effort applied by a force. Recall that a force when acting on a body tends to produce a translational motion, but the rotational, on the other hand, is performed by the torque. When the torque acts on a body it determines an angular acceleration. Torque is important in many subjects in physics like electrical motor, gyroscopes, among others. Finally, the torque vector is defined as:

the total distance that martina travels that day is

(distance from home to mom's office) plus (distance from mom's office to school)

plus (distance from school to library) plus (distance from library to friend's house)

plus (distance from friend's house to martina's house).

(we don't know what any of these distance actually is.)
