What is the Torque Calculator?
The Torque Calculator computes the torque applied to an object (τ = F * r). This assumes the force is applied perpendicularly.
How to Use This Calculator
1
Enter the force in Newtons (N).
2
Enter the radius (lever arm length) in meters (m).
3
Click 'Calculate' to find the torque.
Example Calculation
Force = 50 N, Radius = 0.5 m
Torque = 50 * 0.5 = 25 N·m.
Frequently Asked Questions
Pro Tips
- Torque is a vector quantity.
- Units are Newton-meters (N·m), not to be confused with Joules (energy).
