What are Gram-force sq. Centimeter and Newton square Millimeter

A gram-force per square centimeter (gf/cm²) is a unit of pressure expressed as the force in grams exerted on one square centimeter of area. It is not a part of the International System of Units (SI) but is still used in some contexts. The gram-force is a measure of weight, derived from the force exerted by 1 gram of mass under the standard acceleration due to gravity at the Earth's surface.

A newton per square millimeter (N/mm²) is a derived unit of pressure in the International System of Units (SI). It represents the pressure exerted when one newton of force is applied over an area of one square millimeter. This unit is a measure of stress and is commonly used in engineering and material science to describe tensile strength, elasticity, and other material properties.

History of Gram-force sq. Centimeter and Newton square Millimeter

The concept of converting gram-force per square centimeter to newton per square millimeter dates back to the era of international unit standardization. This conversion is essential as the world moved towards the International System of Units (SI), which uses the newton as the standard unit of force, making it necessary for scientists, engineers, and technicians to convert between these two units.
