Anyone can give a good explanation on the difference between the two ?
Torque is the rotational speed. This means a body can keep a constant rotation without external forces. To change torque, forces are needed (for example friction to slow things down)
See wikipedia for further info
force is linear, torque is radial force - both are not speed! So wooyay is partly wrong. But the suggestion to read up on wikipedia is very good
my bad
Dont know what radial is…dont worry wont ask you again
hmm, ok that could get complicated… what's your native language? Maybe you can find a dictionary to translate the word(s) and have a look at e.g. wikipedia in your native language?
A bit simplified:
Torque makes the object spin. If you apply a force directly onto the center of mass of the object, the object will move. But if you apply a force a bit away from the center of mass (like a wrench on a bolt), that force will make the object spin (and move). So the force is still a force, but it produces torque on the object.
Lol Irrisor.
Thanks I think I've got it.

Should have looked there first, thanks anyway every1.
