Calculate Torque
Our Torque Calculator helps you determine the rotational force (torque) applied to an object. This is particularly useful in:
- Mechanical engineering
- Automotive applications
- Physics problems
- Machine design
- Construction and assembly
How to Use Our Torque Calculator
- Enter the force applied (in Newtons, pounds, or other units)
- Input the distance from the pivot point (in meters, feet, or other units)
- Specify the angle between force and lever arm (if not perpendicular)
- Choose your preferred units for the result
- Get the calculated torque value
The calculator uses the formula: Torque = Force × Distance × sin(θ)
Where:
- Force is the applied force
- Distance is the length of the lever arm
- θ is the angle between the force vector and the lever arm
Note: The maximum torque occurs when the force is perpendicular to the lever arm (90 degrees).
