What are Decinewton and Pound Foot-square Second

Definition of Decinewton

A Decinewton (dN) is a unit of force in the metric system that is equal to one-tenth of a newton. The newton, named after Sir Isaac Newton, is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit of force. In practical terms, a decinewton is often used in scientific and engineering contexts to measure smaller forces. Understanding this unit helps in various calculations involving force, mass, and acceleration, making it a valuable unit in physics and related fields.

Definition of Pound Foot-square Second

The Pound Foot-square Second (lb·ft·s²) is a derived unit of measure that represents the moment of inertia in the British Imperial System. It combines pounds (a unit of mass), feet (a unit of length), and seconds (a unit of time) to describe rotational inertia. This unit is essential in fields such as mechanical engineering and physics, where rotational dynamics and the distribution of mass in rotating bodies are analyzed. Understanding lb·ft·s² assists in calculating the resistance of an object to changes in its rotational motion.
