What are Electron-volt and Gram-force centimeter

An electron-volt (eV) is a unit of energy that's equal to the amount of kinetic energy gained by a single electron when it accelerates through an electric potential difference of one volt. It is a very small unit of energy used in the field of particle physics and quantum mechanics, where interactions and particles often involve extremely low amounts of energy.

A gram-force centimeter (gf·cm) is a unit of torque representing the rotational force generated when a one gram mass is applied at a one centimeter radius from the pivot point. It's a compound unit derived from the gram-force, which is a metric unit of force, and the centimeter, a unit of length, reflecting the physical concept of torque or moment of force.

History of Electron-volt and Gram-force centimeter

The concept of the electron-volt (eV) as a unit of energy emerged from the study of atomic and subatomic particles. Over time, the need to relate eV to mechanical energy units, such as gram-force centimeters (gf·cm), led to the creation of conversion tools, enabling scientists to apply theoretical physics findings to practical engineering problems.
