There's just so
much torque in the mid-range that it can pull a whole building down — okay, I made up that last bit, but there's enough to knock your occupant's socks off.

In a straight light and just a regular throw it wouldn't be seen, but with something with as much torque as batting those injuries could have healed differently than what he was and changed everything in his swin
In a straight light and just a regular throw it wouldn't be seen, but with something with as
much torque as batting those injuries could have healed differently than what he was and changed everything
in his swin
in his swing.
Although such measurements have been performed
in much larger scale systems, the latest results were achieved within a micrometer - sized waveguide — a thin wire that guides light — and demonstrated the use of optical
torque to induce rotational motion
in a microscale mechanical device.
The researchers have identified three different transmission regimes: a solid - like scenario which transmits
torque much like a macroscopic gear; a liquid - like scenario
in which
much of the energy input is lost to friction and an intermediate slipping scenario unique to soft materials which combines aspects of the solid - like and liquid - like behaviours.
They must keep their feet fairly rigid during takeoff when they hurl themselves across gaps
in the tree canopy; otherwise,
much of the
torque from their foot muscles would be dissipated within the foot rather than being transferred to the tree.
After all, even if we get stronger overall, if the angle of peak
torque changes, then we will find that some joint angles increase hugely
in strength, while others do not improve strength very
much at all.
It accelerates
much like the Bugatti, too, with just enough
torque to slip all four wheels at launch but the grip to reach triple - digit speeds
in the time that a quick sport sedan hits 60 mph.
With a 4.0 - liter flat - six making 514 hp and 346 lb - ft of
torque, the GT3 RS is estimated by Porsche to hit 60 mph
in 3 seconds flat, and thanks to a new aero kit, generate twice as
much downforce as the regular 911 GT3.
My understand standing is horsepower (which is 33,000 ft - lb) is the amount of work your car can do
in a minute so if my car have a max of 690 horsepower, that's how
much force my car can lift and keep moving, and
torque is the same but with how
much force is needed to get all the compounds moving inside the engine so if its 400
torque then that's how
much force is needed to get the vehicle moving and after it moves the horsepower pick up.
The hefty
torque makes the turbo - diesel generally quite responsive, but
in flat - out acceleration it can't match the
much larger gasoline engine.
The 9.6 seconds Chrysler quotes for the Pacifica's 0 - to -60-mph sprint won't set blood aboil; 250 horsepower and 250 pound - feet of
torque in the face of two - plus tons of sports tourer ain't
much.
The 2016 Cadillac CTS - V gets its current 640 hp and prodigious 630 lb - ft of
torque from the same supercharged 6.2 - liter V - 8 used
in the Corvette Z06, where it makes a neat 650 hp and as
much torque.
I hear they curved the
torque flow
in such a way that it feels
much meatier and more powerful than it actually is, so driving enthusiasts on a budget will not be disappointed.
The closely related 3.6 - liter 911 Turbo engine can deliver just as
much torque, but it's available only for about ten seconds
in over-boost mode.
So rather than trying to send
much of the 510 lb - ft of
torque to the rear axle, I concentrated on enjoying the smooth shifts available from the short - throw, six - speed gearbox, which is a great box but, I might offer, no better than the one
in the Roush Mustang that we drove a few months ago.
With so
much torque on - tap it makes effortless progress, be it on the motorway, where a mild squeeze of the throttle
in 6th gear brings a satisfying shove of acceleration, or on a fast A or B road, where you can make swift progress by smoothly stroking along
in the higher gears.
There's no sledgehammer effect
in your kidneys - there's simply too
much mass being pushed forwards for that - but the V8's breadth of
torque (that 900Nm is produced between 2,750 and 4,000 rpm) and the snappy shifts from the MCT gearbox are more than enough to deliver a suitably rapid and linear progression from slow to fast.
Although this modified engine can feasibly produce as
much as 750 hp,
in production form, it's limited to 650 hp and 604 lb - ft of
torque.
Maximum power here is 261bhp, and it develops half as
much torque again as the 20d at 457 lb ft.. There's more weight to lug around - 70 kg more,
in fact - but the 30d still manages to reach 60mph
in 5.8 seconds from rest and go on to 149mph.
Peak power and
torque comes
much later
in the powerband too, with 552bhp at 7500rpm and 557 lb ft at 4750rpm.
Too often while at a tire shop (Merchants, NTB, whatever), I'll see the guys rocking the car to assist (well what they think is assisting)
in the
torque process, which will actually over
torque a lug nut without too
much issue.
With so
much torque available immediately it pulls phenomenally hard, without hesitation, and it actually accelerates with more force the longer you keep your foot
in.
But as the revs rise past 2500rpm the sound changes, the acceleration gets
much stronger as the V6 homes
in on its
torque peak — which is basically flat between 3200 - 5800rpm — and the cumulative effect is utterly dramatic, no mistake whatsoever about that.
The flat
torque curve also means that there's solid urge available pretty
much throughout the rev range, giving a diesel - like surge for overtaking, and the engine is also happy to pull very tall gearing (2200rpm at 75mph
in sixth) without complaint.
Total peak power is 122bhp and while the motor's 14bhp contribution doesn't sound
much, look at it
in torque terms (58 lb ft, to add to the engine's 107 lb ft) and it starts to make sense.
There's so
much torque with the manual than I can drive around town
in 6th gear at 30 mph saving gas.
To the second point, though the Turbo is hardly
in Mazdaspeed 3 territory when it comes to
torque steer, there's still a definite feeling that there's not
much traction to spare when you nail the throttle at low speeds.
In the 812, however,
torque is stronger from the word go and builds to a crescendo until the rev limiter comes into play, pretty
much mirroring the power curve.
And although it's not quite refined GM's V - 6, the CX - 9's turbo - four provides more grunt off the line and
in stop - and - go traffic, owing to its superior 310 lb - ft of
torque available so
much earlier
in the rev range (max
torque is available 2,000 rpm
in the CX - 9 versus 5,000 rpm for the Acadia).
Smoothness of the drive: The belt has the quality of putting down the
torque of the engine
much more smoothly and gradually than the chain counterpart,
in a belt driven motorcycle you wont feel the sudden TUG when you twist the throttle.
I'm pretty show that's exactly the figure recorded by some
in the 205 1.9 Gti..., same power and
torque pretty
much so guess its not expected.
With the previous, 237bhp VXR infamous for its
torque - steer,
much has been done to avoid the same problems
in its all - new 276bhp successor.
M engineers don't like to talk
torque split percentages, because the M5 apparently deals
in much subtler, precise metering to individual wheels.
The turbo - six makes 320 hp (up from 300 before), and while that's shy of that XE 35t, its 330 lb - ft of
torque arrives
much sooner
in the rev range — at just 1,380 rpm versus 4,500 rpm
in the Jaguar.
The turbodiesel may be 0.6 second slower to 60 mph on the factory stopwatch, but it's
much more responsive
in real life with its muscular 400 pound - feet of
torque available from a low, 1600 rpm.
When full, the fluid level of the
torque converter is
much higher than is the level of the pan (almost entirely above the pan
in most cases).
At low speeds there is way to
much torque steer, you're never really sure which direction you will be heading off
in.
It's not a bad starter since it starts fine after the roll (and while
in neutral it's not that the roll is turning the engine
much, I may be wrong since it's an automatic and has a permanent coupling to the engine via the
torque converter)
Body roll, pitch and yaw are now kept
much better
in check, steering response and throttle action are quite a bit sharper, and the active
torque distribution helps to maintain a sportier flow.
When compared to a field of its rivals, including the Porsche 911 Turbo, Mercedes - AMG GT S, and McLaren 570 S, the top - level Audi R8 V10 plus is not only outgunned on
torque, but the competitors make their peak
torque much lower
in the rev range as well, thanks
in part to widespread use of turbocharging.
With abundant
torque on a wide band, there's no need to work the clutch pedal and gearbox as
much as
in the days of the peaky E30 M3, but we do it for fun — a rev - match feature helps execute perfect shifts, down and up.

much power the new Raptor will produce, Ford has promised it will be more than the 411 hp and 434 lb - ft of
torque available
in the old Raptor's 6.2 - liter V - 8.
These turbocharged engines are as
much as 25 per cent more powerful and 15 per cent more efficient than the units they replace, and are accompanied by a naturally aspirated 123bhp / 117 lb ft of
torque (at 6000 / 4000rpm) 1.6 - litre
in the petrol line - up.
Other big stories, though perhaps ones Aston won't appreciate
in their retelling, are the lack of a manual option (a ZF eight - speed
torque converter automatic gets transmission duties) and the decision to ditch the brand's
much - lauded hydraulic steering
in favor of an electronic system.
The standard Cayenne S has so
much low - end
torque that it feels just as quick as the Turbo
in real - world driving, and we'd be happier with the V - 6's lower price and fuel consumption, too.

in displacement at 3.9 liters but posts
much bigger numbers
in both horsepower (661) and
torque (561).
Too
much low down
torque meant rampant wheelspin
in most gears.
I am looking to get a 1/4
torque wrench now because I have built up quite the selection of 1/4 impact sockets and I would like to use them on my jeep since they are
much nicer quality than my 1/2 inch sockets, and a 1/4 wrench can fit
in many places a 1/2 wrench can not.
The
torque and efficiency of the model's 3.0 - liter V - 6 is proving compelling to truck shoppers, so
much that Ram increased the Ecodiesel's presence
in the production mix to 20 percent at the end of September.
Transmitting 237bhp and 236 lb ft through the front wheels inevitably resulted
in torque steer under hard acceleration, added to which was the VXR's fondness for following ruts
in the road — both under acceleration and braking — a problem which, we discovered, got
much worse as the front tyres wore down and the amount of «give»
in the tread blocks reduced.
