What are Kilogram-force and Ounce-force

Definition of Kilogram-force

Kilogram-force, often abbreviated as kgf, is a gravitational metric unit of force. It represents the force exerted by a mass of one kilogram under the standard acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.80665 m/s². In practical terms, it is the force needed to lift a one-kilogram mass against Earth's gravitational pull. Although not part of the International System of Units (SI), kilogram-force is still used in some engineering applications and industries where metric units are predominant. Its simplicity aids in understanding force in terms of everyday mass and gravitational interaction.

Definition of Ounce-force

Ounce-force, abbreviated as ozf, is a unit of force in the imperial system. It represents the force exerted by gravity on an object with a mass of one ounce. In more technical terms, it is the force required to accelerate a one-ounce mass at the standard acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.80665 m/s². Commonly used in contexts where imperial units are prevalent, ounce-force provides a convenient measure of force for small-scale applications. Though less common in scientific fields, it remains relevant in industries and regions where imperial measurements are standard.
