What are Kilopond Meter and Kilojoule

Definition of Kilopond Meter

A Kilopond Meter (kpm) is a unit of work or energy that is part of the meter-tonne-second system (mts). It represents the work done by a force of one kilopond acting over a distance of one meter. In a more literal sense, it is the amount of energy consumed when moving an object one meter using a force equivalent to one kilopond.

Definition of Kilojoule

A Kilojoule (kJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is equivalent to 1,000 joules. The Kilojoule is commonly used in various fields such as nutrition, physics, and engineering, and it represents the amount of work done when a force of one thousand newtons is applied over a distance of one meter.
