Key Terminology
- Poundal foot [pdl*ft]
- A unit of moment of force equivalent to one poundal applied at a perpendicular lever arm of one foot, used in imperial engineering contexts.
- Kilogram-force meter [kgf*m]
- A torque unit equal to the moment produced by a one kilogram-force acting perpendicularly at a lever arm of one meter, often used in gravitational unit systems.
- Moment of force
- The rotational effect produced by a force applied at a distance from a pivot point, also known as torque.
