GPT

The writer records a definition of torque in terms of torsion, rotation, forces and a shaft, then adds a separate note about boilers and reports in Alaska.

The page records technical language without stating how the definition connects to the Alaska note. The writer's punctuation and one uncertain word remain source features, not an independently verified engineering definition.

A handwritten definition: 'TorquE - ThAt which producEs / or tENds to producE torsioN or / rotAtioN', with a separate note 'Boilers "Reports" iN Alaska'.

A reference note, probably connected to the boiler work described elsewhere in the collection; cAosE is kept as written.
