What is the difference between torque and moment?. is there
any difference between pressure ans stress?.

Answer Posted / john wayne

The moment is mostly used on axial parts like beams and
such while the torque is used on rotational bodies like
wheels , gears because the torque is looked at as a
rotational force both of them have the same effect when
applied on bodies, the moment however affects a point on
the body which is the point the force is applied on as a
reaction the whole body is affected,but the torque affects
the whole body and doesnt have to be associated with a
point.
