Newton centimeter
A newton centimeter equals 0.01 newton meters.
History: It follows from applying newtons across centimeter-scale lever arms.
Current use: Newton centimeters are used for small fasteners, instruments, and compact mechanisms.
Also written as N cm, Ncm, N-cm, newton centimeters, newton-centimetres.
Newton meter
A newton meter is torque produced by one newton acting at a one-meter lever arm.
History: Torque measurement combines force and perpendicular distance from an axis of rotation.
Current use: Newton meters are used in motors, fasteners, shafts, robotics, and mechanical design.
Also written as N m, Nm, N-m, newton-meter, newton meters, newton-metres.
