external torque Explanation: "Coppia" is definitely torque, especially given the unit of measure Nm you've cited. See below: The coordinated action of fingers during static tasks involving exertion of force and torque on a hand-held object was studied. Subjects were asked to keep a handle with an attachment that allowed for independent change of the suspended load (0.5-2.0 kg) and external torque (0.375-1.5 Nm) in a vertical position while applying minimal effort.
