What are Meganewton and Poundal

Definition of Meganewton

A Meganewton (MN) is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI) equivalent to one million newtons. It measures the amount of force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by one meter per second squared. This large unit is commonly used in engineering and scientific contexts where substantial forces are involved, such as in the design and analysis of large structures, spacecraft, and industrial machinery.

Definition of Poundal

A Poundal (pdl) is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system of units. It represents the force necessary to accelerate a one-pound mass by one foot per second squared. Although less commonly used today, the poundal remains relevant in specific engineering and physics applications, primarily in the United States. It provides a historical insight into the development of force measurement units before the widespread adoption of the SI system.
