What are Kiloton and Gram-force Meter

Definition of Kiloton

A kiloton (kt) is a unit of mass equal to 1,000 metric tons or 1,000,000 kilograms. The term is often used in military contexts to describe the explosive power of nuclear weapons. It can also be utilized to measure the energy released in explosions or the amount of material moved in large-scale engineering projects.

Definition of Gram-force Meter

A gram-force meter (gf·m) is a unit of torque, a measure of the turning force on an object. It is equivalent to the torque resulting from a one gram-force applied perpendicularly to the end of a one meter long lever. This unit is used in various fields of physics and engineering to quantify rotational forces.
