What are Kilogram-force and Joule-meter

Definition of Kilogram-force

Kilogram-force, often abbreviated as kgf, is a unit of force that represents the force exerted by one kilogram of mass in a gravitational field. Specifically, it is the force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by 9.80665 meters per second squared, which is the standard acceleration due to Earth's gravity. This unit is commonly used in engineering and physics to quantify force without needing to convert to Newtons, making it easier to relate to everyday experiences.

Definition of Joule-meter

A Joule-meter, symbolized as J·m, is a unit of measure that combines energy (Joules) and distance (meters). It quantifies the amount of energy transferred or work done over a specified distance. This unit is particularly useful in physics and engineering to describe scenarios where energy is applied to move an object, making it a crucial concept for understanding mechanical work, energy efficiency, and various practical applications in technology and science.
