What are Foot and Kilogram-force

Definition of Foot

A foot is a unit of length in the customary system of measurement used primarily in the United States. Defined as exactly 0.3048 meters, it is subdivided into 12 inches. Historically, the length of a foot varied from country to country and was based on the length of a person's foot. This unit is commonly used in various fields such as construction, aviation, and real estate to measure shorter distances.

Definition of Kilogram-force

Kilogram-force (kgf) is a gravitational metric unit of force. It is defined as the force exerted by one kilogram of mass in standard Earth gravity (9.80665 m/s²). This unit is often used in engineering and physics to express forces in a practical way. For example, a force of 1 kgf is equivalent to 9.80665 newtons. It helps in understanding the forces involved in real-world applications, such as the pressure exerted by fluids or mechanical forces in structures.
