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.
Kilonewton meter
A kilonewton meter equals 1,000 newton meters.
History: It follows SI prefix scaling for high torque and structural moments.
Current use: Kilonewton meters are used in heavy machinery, structures, and large rotating systems.
Also written as kN m, kNm, kN-m, kilonewton meters, kilonewton-metres.
