==Key Stage 3===
===Meaning===
'''Newton Metres''' are the scientific [[unit]] for a [[moment]] (the turning effect of a [[force]]).

===About Newton Metres===
: '''Newton metres''' are shortened to '''Nm''' with an upper case N and a lower case m.
: A '''newton metre''' is a single [[Newton]] of [[force]] causing a turning effect 1 [[metre]] away from a [[pivot]].

==Key Stage 4===
===Meaning===
'''Newton Metres''' are the [[SI Unit]] of [[moment]]s.

===About Newton Metres===
: '''Newton metres''' are shortened to '''Nm''' with an upper case N and a lower case m.
: A '''Newton metre''' is a single [[Newton]] of [[force]] causing a turning effect 1 [[metre]] away from a [[pivot]].
: If there is no turning effect of a [[force]] but there is a [[force]] applied over a [[distance]] then a '''Newton metre''' may refer to the [[Work Done|work done]] in [[Joule]]s. In this case 1J = 1Nm.
