What are Kilogram-force and Gram-force

Definition of Kilogram-force

Kilogram-force (kgf) is a unit of force that represents the force exerted by one kilogram of mass under standard gravity (9.80665 m/s²). It is commonly used in engineering and physics to quantify force, especially when dealing with mechanical systems. One kilogram-force is equivalent to 9.80665 newtons in the International System of Units (SI). This unit helps in understanding and comparing the magnitude of forces in a more tangible way, as it is directly related to the mass and gravitational force experienced on Earth.

Definition of Gram-force

Gram-force (gf) is a metric unit of force defined as the force exerted by one gram of mass in a standard gravitational field (9.80665 m/s²). It is a smaller unit compared to kilogram-force and is often used in applications requiring precise measurement of smaller forces. One gram-force is equivalent to 0.00980665 newtons in the International System of Units (SI). This unit provides a straightforward way to express and calculate force when dealing with lightweight objects or fine-tuned mechanical systems.
