Torque in force?

Hello,

So torque is the product of the arm length and the force acting on the arm. Is there a constant that I can use to calculate the force created at the end of the arm using torque? Torque is just a unit introduced by humans, but not a force or a directly measurable unit, right?

You can reliably measure the torque. It is the equivalent of force in the sense of rotation.

You have written M=F*l yourself to calculate the force, you just change to F=M/l.

In fact, it is the cross product of strength and length, but that doesn’t matter now.

This is F=M/l.

If you divide the torque by the length of the lever arm, you get the force.
