Torque calculator
Torque measures how strongly a force tends to rotate a body, and equals the force times the lever arm times the sine of the angle between them: M = F · r · sin θ. The unit is the newton metre, and torque is greatest when the force acts at a right angle to the arm.

90° means the force acts at a right angle to the arm, which gives the largest torque.
