The Power of Torque
This photo displays the impressiveness of torque, defined by a rotational force that causes angular acceleration. The strength of the torque applied to the steel beam (by pulling down on the rope) depends on the magnitude of the force and the position of the application of the force. In regards to the carlift in the photo, in order for an individual to lift the car, he/she must apply a torque greater than that applied by the car about the point of rotation. Since the car is responsible for a significant force due to its weight, its position from the point of rotation must be smaller than that associated with the smaller force applied by the person. Conversely, since the person can only exert a force much smaller than that of the car, it must be applied from a large position vector from the point of rotation. Since the mass of the car and its stand are 1, 105 kilograms, its cumulative weight is 10, 829 N, and the car lies 4 meters from the point of rotation, the car and stand are responsible for a torque of 43, 416 N*m. Consequently, in order for the car to be lifted, a counterclockwise torque must exceed this value. The torque provided by the bar and ropes on the left side of the fulcrum alone account for 6, 913 N*m, which means the torque exerted by the person must exceed 36, 503 N*m. Since the person is pulling a rope 12.8 m from the point of rotation, the force required of the person must exceed 2, 851 N. In the case of the 200 lb individual in the photo, his weight alone accounts for 889.64 N, and thus, he must only provide an additional force of 1, 962.16 N beyond his weight. Ultimately, since the downward force on the steel bar results in counterclockwise rotation of the car, the torque provided by the person is positive and greater than that the torque provided by the car.
The PACCAR PX-7 engine delivers 200 to 325 hp with up to 750 lb-ft of torque from a 6.7-liter displacement. A lighter engine and higher-capacity front axle give you the ability to shift more weight to the front end and still have all the advantages of a short bumper-to-back-of-cab (BBC) measurement.
This Holden was pulling some great wheelies at Masterton Motorplex. Eventually he went too hard but it was spectacular. – via 500px ift.tt/2rLalFi
quick pic of my old snap-on torque wrench. to think i used to buy all my own tools. cost me a fortune

Encontro de Aeromodelismo realizado no dia 14 de agosto de 2010, no Clube ALA - Associação Linharense de Aerodemolismo, localizado em Linhares Espírito Santo.
This school of art and design infused by the pioneering spirit has produced such illustrious media artists as Toshio Iwai (JP) and Maywa Denki (JP). Its history goes back over 30 years, and closely parallels Japan’s rise to preeminence as a technological nation. Plastic arts and mixed media, areas of artistic work and research taken completely for granted today, were opened up at Tsukuba through the establishment of corresponding courses of study. By combining competence in design and engineering, the University of Tsukuba has made a major contribution to the development and propagation of interactive technologies. Since 1996, Hiroo Iwata (JP) has been working in Tsukuba on using digital interface devices as means of artistic expression.
"Talk Torque-2" has been created by Hideaki Kuzuoka (JP), Ikkaku Kawaguchi (JP) and Toshimasa Yamanaka (JP).

This is a pair of Bourns "low torque" PDB-241 "GTR" (Guitar Series) potentiometers. These pots are available both with smooth shafts (as pictured here) and with knurled shafts like Gibson and Fender knobs take.
I bring this up because this is essentially the same potentiometer as the EVH "Low Friction" pots. Those are only available (as far as I know) with smooth shafts, which means you kinda have to search around for suitable knobs. I bought this pair to go with my machined aluminum EHC knobs, but I also got a couple of sets of the knurled shaft model.
They've got that same low-friction feel of the EVH pots, but they're $3 each instead of $10 each. Which puts them in about the same price range as the CTS 450G that I'm using now and had intended to use as my standard pot for 2014 (replacing the CTS EP-0086 that I used for the first 20 or so guitars).
I wonder now if I should standardize on the CTS 450G (which has a nice brass shaft and bushing) or the Bourns with its low-friction design? Or should I offer either/or as a no-cost option? I kind of think these would be a poor choice as a Tone control, since a nudge could send you into full-on Woman Tone accidentally. So maybe a Bourns for Volume and a CTS for Tone? Of course, some people may hate having a Volume control that spins free like it's not attached to anything. So many choices.
The Torque is a Jeep built completely from base by friend Amit Tomar.
The Torque has a 2100 CC Peugeot Engine, weighs 1 ton, has been built with all the best parts of every jeep and car to make it completely All Weather - All Terrain Vehicle.
Torque has a Snorkel Pipe on the left front side that enables it to be driven inside marshy areas with absolutely no worries of the water entering the engine.
Torque is made of All Terrain Tires which can be further enhanced with Tractor Tires too to make it look even more gigantic.
With a 4 Wheel Drive - Torque can rule in Desert, Rocky, Marshy and normal road conditions. The speed in Normal Road conditions can go upto 80-95 km/ hour without any shake or disturbance.
We had a 4 hour session of offroading and testing the stability of this vehicle in the beach sand.
Lofty Hall, the Godfather of British car mechanics, helping me put in a new headgasket (#2) in my 1971 MGB GT. Or rather I was helping him put it in by staying out of his way.
Lofty is turning 75 next week. He's been wrenching on British Cars much longer than I've been alive. A venerable encyclopedia when it comes to these vehicles!
