What is this tool?

This Torque Calculator is a simple web tool designed to help you quickly determine the torque exerted by a force. Torque is a measure of the rotational force on an object, often described as the “turning effect” of a force. It’s a fundamental concept in physics, engineering, and mechanics.

The calculator applies the standard formula:
$$\tau = F \cdot r \cdot \sin(\theta)$$

Where:

• : Torque, measured in Newton-meters ($N \cdot m$)
• : Force, measured in Newtons ($N$)
• : Lever arm distance, measured in meters ($m$)
• : The angle between the force and the lever arm, measured in degrees ($°$)

This tool is useful for students, teachers, engineers, and mechanics who need to perform quick and accurate torque calculations.

How to Use

1. Step 1: Enter the force () in Newtons ($N$) into the first input field.
2. Step 2: Enter the lever arm distance () in meters ($m$) into the second input field.
3. Step 3: Enter the angle () between the force and the lever arm in degrees ($°$) into the third input field.
4. Step 4: Click the “Calculate” button.
5. Step 5: Read the torque result () in Newton-meters ($N \cdot m$) from the results display area.
