What are Kilogram-force-meter and BTU

Definition of Kilogram-force-meter

The kilogram-force meter (kgf·m) is a unit of torque. One kgf·m represents the torque generated by one kilogram-force acting at a perpendicular distance of one meter from a pivot point. This measurement is crucial in fields such as engineering and physics, where understanding the rotational force of an object is vital.

Definition of BTU

The British Thermal Unit (BTU) is a unit of heat energy. It is defined as the amount of energy needed to raise the temperature of one pound of water by one degree Fahrenheit at a constant pressure of one atmosphere. BTUs are commonly used in the power, steam generation, heating, and air conditioning industries.
