Depends on what application the Nm is being subjected to.

If the torque was on a circular shaft the method is as fo If the torsional shear stress is 250 Mpa, on a Beryllium Copper wire. Diameter = 1.5mm (d) Length of rod = 40mm (L) Shear Modulus of elasticity (G) = for BCu wire = 48Gpa or 48*109 N/m2 Polar moment of Inertia (J) = (pi *d4) / 32 (for circular cross section) J = (pi * (.00154)) / 32 J = 4.97*10-13 m4 3.83496E-08

t = torsional shear stress Torque = T where T= ( t max * J ) / c c is distance from the point of interest. In this case c would be from the center of the rod to the edge of the rod. ( c letting t max be 250 Mpa.. 250 MPa = 250*106 N/m2 T = ((250*106 N/m2) * (4.97*10-13 m4)) / (7.5*10-4m) T = .165Nm 896 2748.9

cular shaft the method is as follows:

rod to the edge of the rod. ( c = d/2 ) in m. c = .0015/2 = 7.5*10 -4m
