What are Kilogram-force Meter and Millijoule

A Kilogram-force Meter (kgf·m) is a unit of torque that represents the rotational force generated by one kilogram-force acting at a lever arm one meter long. It is a product of force (kilograms-force) and distance (meters) from the axis of rotation.

A Millijoule (mJ) is a unit of energy or work in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to one-thousandth of a joule. It is a measure of the amount of energy expended when a force of one newton is applied over a displacement of one meter.
