  2. Torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque

    Today, torque is referred to using different vocabulary depending on geographical location and field of study. This article follows the definition used in US physics in its usage of the word torque. [5] In the UK and in US mechanical engineering, torque is referred to as moment of force, usually shortened to moment. [6]

  3. Torque density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque_density

    Torque density is a measure of the torque-carrying capability of a mechanical component. It is the ratio of torque capability to volume and is expressed in units of torque per volume. Torque density is a system property since it depends on the design of each element of the component being examined and their interconnection.

  6. Newton-metre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton-metre

    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 ...
