What are Ounce-force and Kilogram-force

Definition of Ounce-force

Ounce-force (ozf) is a unit of force used primarily in the United States. It quantifies the amount of force exerted by one ounce of mass under the influence of Earth's gravity. Specifically, one ounce-force is equivalent to 0.278 Newtons. This measurement is commonly applied in fields such as engineering and physics where precise calculations of force are necessary. Understanding and utilizing ounce-force helps in creating accurate models and simulations in various scientific and industrial applications.

Definition of Kilogram-force

Kilogram-force (kgf) is a gravitational metric unit of force. It represents the force exerted by one kilogram of mass under standard gravity (9.80665 meters per second squared). One kilogram-force is equivalent to 9.80665 Newtons. It is frequently used in engineering, especially in fields like mechanics and material science, to describe loads and forces. Understanding kilogram-force is crucial for precise calculations in designing structures, machinery, and various mechanical systems.
