What are Kilogram-force and Pound-force

Definition of Kilogram-force

Kilogram-force (kgf) is a unit of force that represents the force exerted by one kilogram of mass in standard gravitational conditions. It is equivalent to 9.80665 newtons. The kilogram-force is often used in engineering and physics as a measure of force, particularly when dealing with mechanical systems. It provides a more intuitive understanding of force compared to newtons, especially in contexts where mass and weight are commonly discussed.

Definition of Pound-force

Pound-force (lbf) is a unit of force that represents the force exerted by one pound of mass under standard gravitational conditions. It is equivalent to approximately 4.44822 newtons. This unit is commonly used in the United States and other countries that follow the imperial system. In various engineering applications, pound-force provides a practical measure of force, particularly in mechanical and structural fields where the imperial units are prevalent.
