What are Kilogram-force Centimeter and Kilocalorie

Definition of Kilogram-force Centimeter

Kilogram-force centimeter (kgf·cm) is a unit of torque representing the rotational force generated by one kilogram-force acting at a lever arm one centimeter in length. It combines the mass unit kilogram with the distance unit centimeter to calculate the twisting or turning force, essential in mechanical applications where leverage and rotational motion come into play.

Definition of Kilocalorie

A kilocalorie (kcal) is a unit of energy commonly used in food to signify the amount of energy provided. Equivalent to 1,000 small calories, it measures the energy required to raise the temperature of one kilogram of water by one degree Celsius. This unit is vital in nutritional contexts and energy expenditure calculations.
