Torque Calculator Torque Calculator Torque Calculator Force (F) in Newtons (N) Distance (r) in meters (m) Angle (\(\theta\)) in degrees Calculate Understanding Torque Torque is a measure of the rotational force applied to an object around a pivot point. The magnitude of torque depends on three factors: the amount of force applied, the distance from the pivot point, and the angle at which the force is applied. The formula for calculating torque is: \[ \tau = F \times r \times \sin(\theta) \] Where: \(\tau\) is the torque (Nm) \(F\) is the force applied (N) \(r\) is the distance from the pivot (m) \(\theta\) is the angle between the force and the lever arm (degrees) Example Calculation For a force of 50 N applied at a distance of 0.5 meters from the pivot, at an angle of 30 degrees: \[ \tau = 50 \times 0.5 \times \sin(30^\circ) = 12.5 \, \text{Nm} \] Use the calculator above to experiment with different values of force, distance, and angle to see how they affect the torque!
