What are Gram-force and Kilojoule

Definition of Gram-force

A gram-force is a unit of force in the gravitational metric system. It is defined as the force exerted by gravity on one gram of mass. Essentially, it represents the weight of a gram under standard gravity, which is 9.80665 meters per second squared. This measurement is crucial in scientific calculations where precision in force measurements is necessary.

Definition of Kilojoule

Kilojoule is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is equal to one thousand joules, where a joule is the energy transferred when applying a force of one newton over a distance of one meter. Kilojoules are widely used when discussing nutritional energy values of foods, as well as in various scientific and engineering fields to measure work, heat, and energy.
