Centinewton [cN]


Centinewton is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).



  • 1 centinewton (cN) equals 10−210^{-2} newtons (0.01 newton).



  • It is used to measure very small forces, useful in precision engineering, material testing, and small-scale physics experiments.



  • To put it in perspective:



1 cN=0.01 N1 \text{ cN} = 0.01 \text{ N}

Centinewtons allow convenient expression of forces smaller than decinewtons but larger than millinewtons.



Joule per Centimeter [J/cm]


Joule per centimeter is a unit of energy per unit length.



  • It measures how much energy is distributed or transferred over each centimeter.



  • Since 1 centimeter = 0.01 meter, joule per centimeter is related to joule per meter by:



1 J/cm=100 J/m1 \text{ J/cm} = 100 \text{ J/m}

  • Like joule per meter, this unit is used to describe energy density along a line, such as tension in a wire or energy stored per unit length in materials.



  • Also, it can relate to force, since:



1 J/m=1 N  ⟹  1 J/cm=100 N1 \text{ J/m} = 1 \text{ N} \implies 1 \text{ J/cm} = 100 \text{ N}

Thus, joule per centimeter expresses a larger force equivalent compared to joule per meter.
