Question

calculate the torque in inch-pounds if the force applied is 16 foot-pounds.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the conversion factor

We know that 1 foot is equal to 12 inches. For torque, when converting from foot - pounds to inch - pounds, we use the conversion factor that 1 foot - pound = 12 inch - pounds.

Step2: Multiply the given torque by the conversion factor

The given torque is 16 foot - pounds. To convert it to inch - pounds, we multiply 16 by 12.
$16\times12 = 192$

Answer:

192
