Torque
Worth Knowing
Torque is rotational force — force applied at a distance from a pivot — which is why a longer wrench loosens a stubborn bolt with less effort. Its units reflect that force-times-distance nature: newton-meters in metric, pound-feet in the US. Note that torque and energy share the same physical dimensions yet are never interchanged, since one is a twisting effect and the other is work done; keeping newton-meters (torque) distinct from joules (energy) avoids a genuine conceptual muddle.
