What are Newton Meter and Calorie

Definition of Newton Meter

A Newton Meter (Nm) is a unit of torque in the International System of Units (SI). It represents the torque produced by a one Newton force applied perpendicularly to a moment arm which is one meter long. It is used to quantify rotational force in various applications such as engineering and physics.

Definition of Calorie

A Calorie, often denoted as 'cal', is a unit of energy. Specifically, it's defined as the amount of heat energy required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius at a pressure of one atmosphere. In nutritional contexts, calories refer to the energy people get from the food and drink they consume, and the energy they use in physical activity.
