what is torque?
What does it mean that an engine puts out 150 lbft of torque at 2500 rpm? If I stand at the end of a 1 foot rod attached to the crankshaft, the rating suggests the engine would stall. Yet I'm sure it would send me into the next county. Is force applied through a wrench more of a moment than continuous rotational torque?
