Newton Meter
A newton meter (N·m) is a unit of torque or energy, representing the amount of force applied over a distance.
History/Origin
The newton meter was established as a standard unit of torque and energy in the International System of Units (SI) to provide a consistent measurement for mechanical work and rotational force.
Current Use
It is commonly used in engineering and physics to quantify torque in mechanical systems and to measure energy in contexts such as physics calculations and energy conversions.
Inch-Ounce
The inch-ounce (in*ozf) is a unit of energy or work, representing the work done when a force of one ounce-force is applied over a distance of one inch.
History/Origin
The inch-ounce originated in the imperial and customary measurement systems, primarily used in the United States for small-scale energy calculations and engineering applications, before being largely replaced by the foot-pound in most contexts.
Current Use
Today, the inch-ounce is rarely used and has been largely superseded by more standard units like the foot-pound. It may still appear in niche engineering, calibration, or historical references within the energy converter category.
