Although its dimensions match work, torque is a quantity that is:

ASlightly less
BVery different
CExactly equal
DSlightly bigger
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Very different
1. Sharing dimensions does not make two quantities the same. 2. Work is a scalar while torque is a vector. 3. So torque is a very different physical quantity from work. _Source: syllabus Physics Part I, Chapter 7, Systems of Particles and Rotational Motion._
