What are Newton Meter and Poundal Foot

Definition of Newton Meter

A Newton Meter (N·m) is a unit of torque in the International System of Units (SI) that represents the torque resulting from a one newton force applied perpendicularly to a moment arm which is one meter long. It is a measure of rotational force and is commonly used in physics and engineering for quantifying the work needed to rotate an object about an axis.

Definition of Poundal Foot

A Poundal Foot (pdl·ft) is a unit of torque within the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, which is a non-SI system of measurement. It is defined as the torque produced by one poundal force acting at a perpendicular distance of one foot from a pivot point. The unit reflects the rotational force in a system where force is measured in poundals and distance in feet.
