What are Centimeter and Ton-force

Definition of Centimeter

A centimeter, symbolized as cm, is a unit of length in the metric system. It is one-hundredth of a meter, the International System of Units (SI) base unit for length. Originating from the French 'centimètre', it is a widely used unit globally for everyday measurements and is commonly used in maps, architectural plans, and the field of medicine.

Definition of Ton-force

Ton-force, often referred to as a 'tonne of force', 'metric ton-force', or simply 'tonf', is a unit of force. It is defined as the force exerted by one ton of mass under the acceleration due to gravity (9.80665 meters per second squared). One ton-force is approximately equal to 9.964 kilonewtons (kN). The unit is not part of the International System of Units (SI) but is still used in certain contexts, particularly in engineering and construction industries.
