People really love to post about New Mexico

Darn, I was really hyped to see another thread on New Mexico

NM has a really good team in a fertile recruiting area. We should emulate them and recruit New Mexico more.

I agree.

And here I was expecting a post about a nautical mile

 

[BlakNGoldAllDay]

Nautical Miles are the only legitimate measures of length that should be used.

Ask and thou shalt receive.

I did quite enjoy the comedy of Norm McDonald.

The way it's written makes me think of newton metres.

Spot the engineer? 😬

Haha yea close. I work in researching the nervous system so it's all electrical signals and we often report strength in Nm. A lot of the foundational work did come from engineers but our "tree" comes from a kinesiology/sport performance background.

Interesting! How do you convert an electrical property to a physical property?

I always read “Nm” the same, but it’s due to a Mech E background.

I think was unclear. A lot of times we use a dynamometer to measure strength in Nm. We also combine this with electromyography to record and analyze nervous system activity.

I'm glad I'm not the only one that thought that the first time!

Aaaaah okay. That makes muuuch more sense. I thought you pulled off some sort of conversion magic 😅
