  2. Torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torque

    The input power provided by the cyclist is equal to the product of angular speed (i.e. the number of pedal revolutions per minute times 2π) and the torque at the spindle of the bicycle's crankset. The bicycle's drivetrain transmits the input power to the road wheel , which in turn conveys the received power to the road as the output power of ...

  3. Moment (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_(physics)

    v. t. e. A moment is a mathematical expression involving the product of a distance and a physical quantity such as a force or electric charge. Moments are usually defined with respect to a fixed reference point and refer to physical quantities located some distance from the reference point. For example, the moment of force, often called torque ...

  4. Newton-metre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton-metre

    The newton-metre or newton-meter (also non-hyphenated, newton metre or newton meter; symbol N⋅m[1] or N m[1]) [a] is the unit of torque (also called moment) in the International System of Units (SI). One newton-metre is equal to the torque resulting from a force of one newton applied perpendicularly to the end of a moment arm that is one ...

  5. Couple (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Couple_(mechanics)

    A couple is a pair of forces, equal in magnitude, oppositely directed, and displaced by perpendicular distance or moment. The simplest kind of couple consists of two equal and opposite forces whose lines of action do not coincide. This is called a "simple couple". [1] The forces have a turning effect or moment called a torque about an axis ...

  6. Power (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_(physics)

    t. e. Power is the amount of energy transferred or converted per unit time. In the International System of Units, the unit of power is the watt, equal to one joule per second. Power is a scalar quantity. Specifying power in particular systems may require attention to other quantities; for example, the power involved in moving a ground vehicle ...

  7. Torsion (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_(mechanics)

    Torsion of a square section bar Example of torsion mechanics. In the field of solid mechanics, torsion is the twisting of an object due to an applied torque.Torsion is expressed in either the pascal (Pa), an SI unit for newtons per square metre, or in pounds per square inch (psi) while torque is expressed in newton metres (N·m) or foot-pound force (ft·lbf).

  8. Rotation around a fixed axis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_around_a_fixed_axis

    The work done by a torque acting on an object equals the magnitude of the torque times the angle through which the torque is applied: =. The power of a torque is equal to the work done by the torque per unit time, hence: P = τ ω . {\displaystyle P=\tau \omega .}

  9. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    Motor velocity constant, back EMF constant. is the motor velocity, or motor speed, [2] constant (not to be confused with kV, the symbol for kilovolt), measured in revolutions per minute (RPM) per volt or radians per volt second, rad/V·s: [3] The rating of a brushless motor is the ratio of the motor's unloaded rotational speed (measured in RPM ...
