What are Gram-force Meter and Calorie

Definition of Gram-force Meter

A gram-force meter (gf·m) is a unit of work or energy in the gravitational metric system. It is defined as the work done by a force of one gram-force acting over a distance of one meter. In other words, when a one gram-force is applied to move an object through a one meter distance, the energy expended in doing so is one gram-force meter. This measurement is commonly used in physics and engineering to quantify the work performed or energy transferred in a system.

Definition of Calorie

A calorie is a unit of energy commonly used to quantify the amount of energy food provides to the human body. It is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of water by one degree Celsius. Dieticians and nutritionists often use the calorie as a measure to recommend daily energy intake for maintaining, losing, or gaining weight. The calorie is also used in various fields such as chemistry and physics to express energy content in different contexts.
