What are Kilopond Meter and Dyne Centimeter

Definition of Kilopond Meter

A kilopond meter (kp·m) is a unit of work or energy in the meter-kilogram-second system (MKS). It is defined as the work done by a force of one kilopond acting over a distance of one meter. In essence, it quantifies the amount of energy expended when a kilopond force is applied to move an object through a meter.

Definition of Dyne Centimeter

A dyne centimeter (dyn·cm) is a unit of torque (also known as moment or moment of force) in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system of units. It represents the amount of force of one dyne applied perpendicularly to a moment arm that is one centimeter long, thus measuring the rotational force applied on an object.
