The following are examples of orders of magnitude for torque.
Order of magnitude | Value ( SI units) | Value (imperial units) | Item |
---|---|---|---|
10^1 | 1 N⋅m | 0.73 lb⋅ft | Torque when one end of a 1 m long moment arm is acted upon by a force of 1 N. |
10^2 | 108 N⋅m to 149 N⋅m | 80 lb⋅ft to 110 lb⋅ft | Torque to which most lug nuts are tightened. [1] |
10^2 | 881 N⋅m | 650 lb⋅ft | Torque at the crankshaft of a Dodge Charger SRT HellCat. [2] |
10^6 | 7,000,000 N⋅m | 5162935 lb⋅ft | Output torque of the Wärtsilä RT-flex96C, [3] the largest piston engine in the world. |
