Looking it up, when working in what my old physics teacher used to call 'Christian units', the 5252 figure in the conversion is the
the number of ft.lb f/min in a Horsepower (33,000) divided by 2 x Pi (6.2832...), because total distance travelled is needed for
power (force x distance /time), but only the radius for torque (force x radius).
