Torque Calculator

Torque: a planned Super Calculator tool. Covers force, lever arm length and angle. Stub page: the tool, its formula and a worked example are not published yet.

Torque Calculator is a planned calculator in the science section of Super Calculator, covering physics: mechanics.

What this calculator will compute

Inputs: force, lever arm length, angle, moment of inertia and angular acceleration and rotational speed.

Outputs: torque in Nm and lb-ft, power, force required at a given radius and angular acceleration.

Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: tau = r F sin(theta), maximized when the force is perpendicular to the lever arm. Rotational form tau = I alpha. Power from torque and speed: P = tau omega, or in practical units P (kW) = tau (Nm) times rpm divided by 9549.
