User Guide
This tool will calculate the torque generated around an axis by a force applied at right angle to a lever arm of a specified length.
Once you have selected the value and units for force and length, two conversion scales will be produced to show a range of torque values calculated for different values of force and length while the other parameter is kept fixed to the input value
Formula
This tool calculates torque using the following formula:
τ = F · r
Symbols
- τ = Torque
- F = Force
- r = Lever Arm Length
Force Applied
Enter the force applied perpendicular to the lever arm.
Lever Length
Enter the length of the lever arm between the point force is applied and the axis point.
Torque Calculation
This is the moment of force or turning force generated by a force applied at a specified distance from the axis of rotation.
