What are Attonewton and Femtonewton

Definition of Attonewton

An attonewton (aN) is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to 10^-18 newtons. This extremely small measurement is often used in scientific fields like nanotechnology, quantum physics, and molecular biology where interactions and forces are minuscule. Understanding and calculating these tiny forces can provide significant insights into the behavior of particles and systems at the nanoscale level.

Definition of Femtonewton

A femtonewton (fN) is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI), equal to 10^-15 newtons. This unit is particularly useful in fields like biophysics, nanotechnology, and molecular engineering, where forces at the molecular or atomic scale are measured. Precise calculations of such small forces help scientists and engineers understand and manipulate biological processes and materials at a very detailed level.
