    The bike example for torque trips me up every time. When I was a kid I kept my bike in the highest gear at all times because everything else felt like my legs were spinning and doing nothing. I never could never completely understand what value a low gear would have, or how my legs spinning twice as fast for the same output was supposed to help me up a hill.

    Good video (as usual) with good graphics (as usual). Why are gear (ratios) referred to as “low” and “high” (or “lower” and “higher”)? I know the answer, but this is almost never actually explained; the terms are just used as though everyone knows what they actually mean.

The answer I do not have exactly but... if a smaller input gear drives a larger output gear at some ratio, let's say 4 turns for the input gear makes the output gear turn only once, you are in low/slow (high torque) gear. If the input gear is larger than the output gear, the output will rotate faster/higher... but you probably know that, and that didn't answer your queation.

    A senior mechanic once told me that Tata trucks had immense horse power as a result it would perform well at lower torque which is favourable for hilly regions whereas Leyland Trucks were of low horse power compared to Tata trucks but it's torque aspect was excellent ,as a result it performed very well at a higher torque and could carry heavy load slow and steadily on a hilly road because of its excellent torque qualities, but what Leyland Trucks were lacking was the instant pick up which was very much existent in Tata Trucks powered by Mercedes Benz Engine, that is why Tata trucks were very much preferred in hilly sections, but Leyland trucks powered by British Leyland Engine still could perform quite well because of its superior torque qualities.

    I think I get it fully but maybe not. Is the longer the wrench meaning more torque because the further away you get from the nut the less force per measurement needs to be applied. I imagined a scenario of me trying to turn a nut with a 70 ft pole or something and realized the further out I am the less force I need because the force is distributed into smaller pieces.
