What are Kilonewton and Gram-force

Definition of Kilonewton

A kilonewton (kN) is a unit of force in the metric system, equivalent to 1,000 newtons. It is commonly used in engineering and physics to quantify large forces. One newton is defined as the force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by one meter per second squared. Therefore, a kilonewton represents a substantial amount of force, making it useful for applications involving heavy loads and structures.

Definition of Gram-force

Gram-force (gf) is a unit of force that represents the force exerted by one gram of mass under standard gravity. In the metric system, it is defined as 0.00980665 newtons. Gram-force is commonly used in smaller-scale measurements where the force involved is relatively low. It offers a straightforward way to relate mass and force, especially in applications involving lightweight objects or precise scientific calculations.
