What are Ton-force and Newton

Definition of Ton-force

A ton-force is a unit of force that traditionally denotes the weight of a US short ton exerting force due to gravity. One ton-force is equivalent to 2000 pounds-force in the US customary system. It's a non-SI unit that is still in use for specific applications, such as in industries where traditional units are prevalent.

Definition of Newton

A Newton is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit of force. It is defined as the force necessary to provide a mass of one kilogram with an acceleration of one meter per second squared. Named after Sir Isaac Newton, due to his work in classical mechanics, one Newton is equal to 1 kg·m/s².
