Discover an easy-to-use tool that converts pressure from N/cm² to gf/cm², developed by Newtum. Let's demystify unit conversion and pique your curiosity about this essential utility!

What are Newton and Gram-force

A Newton is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). Defined as the force needed to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by one meter per second squared, it is a crucial measurement in physics and engineering, symbolized as 'N'. Newton's influence extends across numerous applications, from quantifying gravitational pull to engineering mechanics.

Gram-force, denoted as gf, is a unit of force not part of the SI system. It is the force exerted by gravity on one gram of mass. Specifically, it is equal to the magnitude of the force that gravity exerts on a small object with a mass of one gram on the surface of the Earth. This measure plays a role in various fields, including material science and engineering calculations.

History of Newton and Gram-force

The conversion from Newton per square centimeter to Gram-force per square centimeter has its roots in the need to bridge the gap between SI units and other non-SI units used in various industries and regions for measuring force per unit area.
