What is the difference between torque and moment?

Answer Posted / chaitanya pithawa

torque is the name of a pair of equal-and-opposite forces
which are not in-line, and so have a purely rotational effect.
torque tends to be used when there is an axle or pivot to be
turned around, while moment tends to be used in essentially
non-rotational situations, such as analysis of forces on a beam.
