Orque can be calculated by multiplying the force (n) applied at 90∘ to the lever arm at a distance (m) from the pivot point (point of rotation), the compound si unit for the torque is nβ‹…m. if the force (at 90∘ to the lever arm) applied is 15 n and it is applied at 2.0 m from the pivot point (point of rotation), what is the torque on the lever?
