Newton Meter

N·m

Definition

The newton meter (N·m) is the SI unit of moment of force, representing the torque produced by a force of one newton applied at a distance of one meter from the axis of rotation. It is the standard unit for measuring rotational force in physics and engineering.

History/Origin

Derived from the SI base units of force (newton) and length (meter), the newton meter became the standard unit for moment of force in the International System of Units. It is fundamental in mechanics and rotational dynamics.

Current Use

Widely used in mechanical engineering, physics, and automotive applications to measure torque, rotational force, and moment of force in engines, motors, and mechanical systems.

Poundal Inch

pdl·in

Definition

The poundal inch (pdl·in) is a unit of moment of force based on the poundal (force unit) and inch. It is used for measuring small torques in precision applications and small-scale mechanical systems.

History/Origin

This unit is based on the poundal and inch, providing a measure for small moment of force values in precision engineering and small-scale applications using the foot-pound-second system.

Current Use

Used in precision engineering, small mechanical systems, and scientific instruments for measuring small torques, rotational forces, and moments in delicate mechanisms and laboratory equipment.
