The torque resulting from a force is expressed as τ= F r into the blade. The force's moment is mathematically represented as τ = F x r, where the bold terms signify vectors. We can express this in terms of magnitude as τ = F r sin θ. In our scenario, since the force is tangential to the wheel, the angle between F and the radius is 90º, with sin 90 = 1. Hence, τ= F r. The torque's direction can be determined using the right-hand rule, where fingers curling in accordance with the torque direction from force to radius, with the thumb indicating the torque's direction. For a clockwise rotation, the fingers curl in that direction, and the thumb points inward toward the blade, indicating the direction of the torque.
