==Key Stage 2==[[File:NewtonMeters.png|right|300px|thumb|A diagram of two '''Newton meters''', one with a [[weight]] attached.]]===Meaning===A '''Newton meter''' is a tool for [[measure|measuring]] [[force]]. ==Key Stage 3=====Meaning===A '''Newton meter''' is a [[MeasureMeasuring Instrument|measuringinstrument]] device used to [[measure]] the strength of a [[force]]. ===About Newton Meters===: '''Newton meters''' [[measure]] [[force]] in [[Newton]]s.: There are different '''Newton meters''' with a different scale. Some can [[measure]] to the nearest [[Newton]], others can [[measure]] to the nearest 0.1 [[Newton]]s. ==Key Stage 4=====Meaning===A '''Newton meter''' is a [[Measuring Instrument|measuring instrument]] used to [[measure]] the [[magnitude]] of a [[force]] in a particular direction. ===About Newton Meters===: '''Newton meters''' [[measure]] [[force]] in [[Newton]]s.: Different '''Newton meters''' may have different [[resolution]]s.: To get an [[accurate]] [[reading]] from a '''Newton meter''' it should be [[calibrate]]d first to check that when there is no [[force]] the '''Newton meter''' [[reading|reads]] zero. ===References=======AQA==== :[https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/178294558X/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=178294558X&linkCode=as2&tag=nrjc-21&linkId=f0dfb66dafcb0c6e9449e7b1a4ae1ac329 ''Newton meters, page 52, GCSE Physics; The Revision Guide, CGP, AQA '']:[https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0008158770/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=0008158770&linkCode=as2&tag=nrjc-21&linkId=ec31595e720e1529e49876c3866fff6e ''Newtonmeter, page 152, GCSE Physics; Student Book, Collins, AQA ''] ====Edexcel==== :[https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1292120223/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=1292120223&linkCode=as2&tag=nrjc-21&linkId=068ecf40278c32406a7f1c6e66751417 ''Forcemeters, page 16, GCSE Physics, Pearson Edexcel '']:[https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1292120193/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1634&creative=6738&creativeASIN=1292120193&linkCode=as2&tag=nrjc-21&linkId=572df39392fb4200db8391d98ae6314e ''Force meters, page 300, GCSE Combined Science, Pearson Edexcel ''].
