    Sunflower seeds were brought to Europe from the Americas in the 16th century, where, along with sunflower oil, they became a widespread cooking ingredient. With time, the bulk of industrial-scale production has shifted to Eastern Europe, and (as of 2020 [update] ) Russia and Ukraine together produce over half of worldwide seed production.

  9. Newton-metre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton-metre

    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 metre long. The unit is also used less commonly as a unit of work , or energy , in which case it is equivalent to the more common and standard SI unit of energy, the joule . [ 2 ]
