Question 1

What is meganewton-meter?

Accepted Answer

Very large torque unit: 1 MN·m = 1,000,000 N·m. Used for ship propellers, wind turbines, mining equipment.

Question 2

How do you convert MN·m to N·m?

Accepted Answer

Multiply by 1 million. Example: 3 MN·m = 3,000,000 N·m.

Question 3

Why are torque specs important?

Accepted Answer

Correct torque ensures proper clamping force. Too loose causes loosening/failure. Too tight causes stretching, stripping, or component damage.

Question 4

What's the difference between torque and force?

Accepted Answer

Force is a straight push/pull. Torque is rotational force: torque = force × distance from pivot. Same force at longer distance = more torque.
