What are Inch and Ton-force

Definition of Inch

An inch is a unit of length in the imperial and US customary systems of measurement. It is equal to 1/12 of a foot or 2.54 centimeters. The inch is commonly used to measure smaller distances and dimensions, particularly in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. It is also used in various technical fields such as engineering and manufacturing. The symbol for inch is "in" or sometimes a double prime ("), for example, 10 inches can be written as 10 in or 10".

Definition of Ton-force

A ton-force, also known as a ton of force, is a unit of force that is equal to the gravitational force exerted by a mass of one ton. In the imperial system, it is equivalent to 2,240 pounds-force (lbf). In the metric system, it is approximately equal to 9,806.65 newtons (N). This unit is often used in engineering applications to measure large forces, such as the tension in cables, the compression in structural elements, or the thrust of engines.
