Ah i get what you were going at now. Also well spotted (it is a typo , should be mN not μN)

After a bit of thought over the units, I currently believe this discrepancy is because 1 N = 1 (kg*m)/s^2 thus 1 N = 1000 (kg*mm)/s^2 (or, 1 (kg*mm)/s^2 = 1μN) Thus considering the earlier question, Torque (Nmm) = Moment of inertia (kg*mm^2) * angular acceleration(1/s^2) =...

Hmm Force = mass*acceleration = mass*(distance/time^2) Force * distance = mass*distance^2 * 1/time^2 It seems the units do kinda add up? I think?

I assume as such, but I can't find equations other than those.

Calculating moment of inertia and translating it between units, I've become confused. The example is a mass of 1kg at 2000mm from the pivot. The force is applied at 1000mm from the pivot. Basics as far as I'm aware: Moment of inertia = mass * Distance to center of rotation^2 Torque = Moment...
