What are Centimeter and Newton

A centimeter, symbolized as cm, is a unit of length in the metric system. It equals one-hundredth of a meter, the International System of Units (SI) base unit for length. Originating from the French 'centimètre', it was introduced in the 1790s based on the meter, which defines as the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1/299,792,458 seconds.

The Newton, denoted as N, is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit of force. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by one meter per second squared. Named after Sir Isaac Newton, in recognition of his work on classical mechanics, specifically Newton's second law of motion.
