@PWSlack - bing? Really? Didn't know anyone actually used that

@OP - This is from wikianswers:

"Torque is simply a turning effect produced on a body by a force. Mathematically, it is force X perpendicular distance. Torque is used to measure couple which is nothing but two torque acting together its whole effect is to rotate a body. Moment and torque are same physical quantities. Moment of a force is torque."

Those basic definitions can be found in a basic Google search, was there anything more specific you'd like to know?
