What are Petanewton and Kilopound-force

Definition of Petanewton

A Petanewton (PN) is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is equal to 10^15 newtons, where one newton is the force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by one meter per second squared. The term 'peta' denotes a factor of 10^15, making it a colossal unit often used in theoretical physics and astrophysics to describe incredibly large forces.

Definition of Kilopound-force

A Kilopound-force (klbf) is a unit of force in the Imperial system, where one kilopound-force equals 1,000 pounds-force. A pound-force is defined as the force exerted by gravity on a one-pound mass at the Earth's surface. Therefore, a kilopound-force is a substantial measure often used in engineering and mechanics to describe large forces in structures or machinery.
