Best Answer

The pound-foot of torque is a measure of an engine's pushingforce to propel a car forward. Therefore, if a car'sengine can push a car forward weighing 6000 lbsup a 45 degree slope from a standstill, it must have at least a300 lb-ft torque to applying the required pressure/force to propel that car up that slope (in its initial movement). However, as the car gain speed, the required lb.-ft. drops (torque will be less and less) as momentom will replace the actual torque.
