Question

a torque requires two things, what are they?

a torque is a vector. what are the two components of every vector?

given torque a) around point a b) around point D

Explanation / Answer

Torque needs a lever arm (the perpendicular length from the pivot) and it needs a force. The vector had two components, the x-component and the y-component.
