Find equal spots around the path (180 degrees)
Like every 5 degree or so. (less is better, infinite spots is the ultimate , but impossible)

Calculate sin (sinus)(degrees)to the specific angle,
(Yuo will forexample get, at 45 degress get : sin45 = 0,707)

Add those values and devide by number of measurements/calculations,
multiply with torque at 90 degrees.

There is your average torque.

This is what Newton derived down to W = mah :-)


: I realize 1 foot pound of torque is a 1 pound weight one foot
: from an axle, but only at 90 degrees (horizontal to ground)
: How can I find the average torque on an axle of a weight,
: say moving from 0 to 180 degrees
: (straight up to straight down) ?
