Does a bridge anchored resting on two pillars have any torque?

• No, it isn't moving

• Yes, but it is at equilibrium

• Yes, but it will soon break because of the torque

• No, Bridges can't have torque

When an object is experiencing a net torque

• it is in dynamic equilibrium.

• it is in static equilibrium.

• it is rotating.

• it is translating.

Torque is a measure of a force's tendency to produce...

• rotational motion

• momentum

• linear motion
