What are Gram-force Centimeter and Calorie nutritional

Definition of Gram-force Centimeter

A Gram-force Centimeter (gfcm) is a unit of work or energy in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system. It is the work done by a force of one gram-force acting over a distance of one centimeter. In other contexts, it's commonly used to measure torque, where it represents the force of one gram acting perpendicularly to a lever arm one centimeter long.

Definition of Calorie nutritional

A Nutritional Calorie, often simply called a calorie, is a unit of energy widely used in nutrition. One Nutritional Calorie, denoted as 'Cal,' is equivalent to 1,000 small calories, or one kilocalorie (kcal). This measure quantifies the amount of energy that food provides to the body when consumed. Typically, the energy needed for various physical activities and bodily functions is expressed in terms of calories.
