What are Meganewton and Centinewton

Definition of Meganewton

A Meganewton (MN) is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is equal to one million newtons (1,000,000 N). The newton itself is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared. Given its large magnitude, the Meganewton is typically used in contexts involving substantial forces, such as engineering, physics, and large-scale structural calculations.

Definition of Centinewton

A Centinewton (cN) is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is equal to one-hundredth of a newton (0.01 N). The newton, the base unit of force, is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram by one meter per second squared. The Centinewton is often used in smaller-scale applications and measurements where precision is crucial, such as in laboratories or for educational purposes.
