What are Ton-metric and Kilogram-force

Definition of Ton-metric

A ton-metric, often simply called a tonne, is a unit of mass equal to 1,000 kilograms. It is a non-SI metric unit recognized for use with the International System of Units (SI) and is commonly used across the globe as a standard measurement for large quantities of materials, such as in shipping and freight.

Definition of Kilogram-force

Kilogram-force is a unit of force. It is defined as the force exerted by one kilogram of mass in standard Earth gravity. One kilogram-force equals 9.80665 newtons, the standard acceleration due to Earth's gravity. This unit is often used in engineering and physics to represent weight, which is a type of force.
