What are Centimeter and Kilonewton

A centimeter, symbolized as cm, is a unit of length in the metric system. It is defined as one-hundredth of a meter, which is the international standard unit of length. The centimeter is widely used in everyday measurements for its convenience and practicality in representing shorter distances and dimensions.

A kilonewton, denoted as kN, is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is equivalent to one thousand newtons, where the newton is the SI derived unit of force. One newton is the force required to accelerate a one kilogram mass at a rate of one meter per second squared.
