After one look at the space inspired thriller you can see there are plenty of reasons why Gravity won and earned the award. Gravity’s cinematographer‚ Emmanuel “Chivo” Lubezki‚ worked closely with director Alfonso Cuarón and visual effects supervisor Tim Webber to create a film set almost entirely in zero gravity. The audience is not just seeing space‚ but they are taken along what seems to be the most realistic view

Torques equilibrium‚ and center of gravity Introduction Torque is a quantitative measure of the tendency of a force to cause or change the rotational motion of a rigid body. A torque is the result of force acting at a distance from an axis of rotation. An essential thing to keep in mind is that the magnitude of the torque is equal to the product of the forces perpendicular distance and magnitude. Theory The magnitude of the torque (t) is found from the product of the force F and
