What are Pound-force-foot and Nanojoule

Definition of Pound-force-foot

A Pound-force Foot (lbf-ft) is a unit of torque or rotational force in the Imperial and US customary systems. It is defined as the force of one pound (lbf) acting at a perpendicular distance of one foot from a pivot point, resulting in a moment or torque that causes an object to rotate.

Definition of Nanojoule

A Nanojoule (nJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to one billionth of a joule. It measures very small amounts of energy, often used in the fields of physics, chemistry, and other scientific disciplines to quantify the energy at the atomic or molecular level.
