The newton-metre or newton-meter (also non-hyphenated, newton metre or newton meter; symbol N⋅m [1] or N m [1]) [a] is the unit of torque (also called moment) in the International System of Units (SI). One newton-metre is equal to the torque resulting from a force of one newton applied perpendicularly to the end of a moment arm that is one ...
Quantity Unit Remarks Name Symbol Name Symbol Definition Force: F: newton: N 1 N = 1 kg·m/s 2: Unit named after Isaac Newton: Moment of force, Torque: M, : N·m 1 N·m = 1 kg·m 2 /s 2: The unit is dimensionally equivalent to the units of energy, the joule; but the joule should not be used as an alternative for the newton metre.
square meter (m 2) differential element of volume V enclosed by surface S: cubic meter (m 3) electric field: newton per coulomb (N⋅C −1), or equivalently, volt per meter (V⋅m −1) energy: joule (J) Young's modulus: pascal (Pa) or newton per square meter (N/m 2) eccentricity
The table usually lists only one name and symbol that is most commonly used. The final column lists some special properties that some of the quantities have, such as their scaling behavior (i.e. whether the quantity is intensive or extensive ), their transformation properties (i.e. whether the quantity is a scalar , vector , matrix or tensor ...
