Torque is the twisting force which cause rotation and the axis of rotation is the point at which the object rotates.
Torque is a rotational force as it leads to the rotation of an object about an axis. Force simply means a pull or push. When an unbalanced ball acts on a force, the ball, the ball will be moved towards the linear motion.
Then, the unbalanced force that is acting in the ball produces torque which causes the ball's rotational motion.
