torque


We may also have observed that, when we consider two different forces F1 and F2 which act in, respectively, r1 and r2 such that

r1F1 = r2F2

then the angular acceleration is the same, whether we apply F1 in r1 or F2 in r2. The only thing that matters is the torque, not the intensity of the force or its position of application.
