Torque is force x radius. Torque is "twisting force" is you will, Take a spanner. The more force you apply, the more the torque. The longer the handle, the more the torque.
The SI units of torque is Nm, not N/m. Newtons x metres, not Newtons per metre.
Joules are also Nxm, but the metres is distance moved, a different concept.
For torque, them 110V people use pound-feet (ie pounds [the force] x feet [ the radius]) or sometimes foot-pounds. The baby version is oz-inches.
