         Re: baffled by a part in RIS 1.5 —Constantine Hannaher
     Don't punish yourself! At least you rendered the symbols from the gear correctly. There are at least four errors in the message I was responding to: (1) confusing the prefix n for nano with the unit symbol N for newton; (2) attaching two prefixes (...)

         Re: baffled by a part in RIS 1.5 —Juergen Stuber
     (...) Using a unit of energy for torque would be very strange. You get an energy if you turn s.th. against a torque through some angle (expressed in radians, I think). Angles have no unit (or just 1), hence the units of torque and energy are equal. (...) (24 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

   I did'nt have the piece with me at the time I posted to lugnet, and yes Symbology is important. Increadibly, all of these mechanical aspects can be mapped out and calculated. It's just cool. (...) (24 years ago, 5-Apr-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
