What are Millinewton and Centipoise

Definition of Millinewton

A millinewton is a unit of force in the metric system, representing one-thousandth of a newton. This unit measures forces that are smaller in magnitude, making it highly useful in scientific and engineering applications where delicate forces are at play. The newton itself is named after Sir Isaac Newton in recognition of his contributions to physics, specifically his second law of motion. In various fields, including physics, engineering, and materials science, the millinewton is utilized to quantify forces in experiments and practical applications requiring precision.

Definition of Centipoise

Centipoise is a unit of dynamic viscosity in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It quantifies the internal friction within a fluid, indicating how much resistance a liquid offers to flow. One centipoise is equal to one-hundredth of a poise, another unit of viscosity. This unit is widely used in industries like petroleum, food, and cosmetics to measure the flow characteristics of liquids. It plays a crucial role in quality control and formulation processes where fluid consistency is vital. Understanding centipoise helps in designing and optimizing products that require specific viscosity levels.
