Technician A says that work is being performed if a force is being applied, yet the object does not move. Technician B says that torque is a twisting force that may or may not result in motion. Which technician is correct

Respuesta :

Answer:

Technician B is correct

Explanation:

According to technician B  "torque is a twisting force that may or may not result in motion" which is right, but technician A is wrong in the sence that for work to be done the force must be applied over a distance that is there must be movement over a distance.

What is work?

work is the application of force over a distance

mathematically

work= force* distance

and it is measured in joules

What is torque?

Torque is a measure of the force that can cause an object to rotate about an axis(hence it is very possible that the object maintained its position)
