What are Kilogram-force and Ounce-force

Definition of Kilogram-force

Kilogram-force (kgf) is a unit of force that represents the force exerted by a mass of one kilogram under the influence of Earth's gravity. It is equivalent to 9.80665 Newtons (N) and is primarily used in the field of engineering and physics. The kilogram-force unit is based on the International System of Units (SI) and provides a convenient way to express force when dealing with mechanical systems, structural analysis, and material strength calculations.

Definition of Ounce-force

Ounce-force (ozf) is a unit of force that denotes the amount of force exerted by one avoirdupois ounce under standard gravity conditions. It is equal to approximately 0.278 Newtons (N). This unit is commonly used in various applications, particularly in the United States, to measure smaller forces in mechanical and engineering contexts. Ounce-force is handy for precision measurements and applications where the forces involved are relatively small.
