Dekane wton [daN]


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



  • 1 dekane wton (daN) equals 10110^{1} newtons (10 newtons).



  • It is commonly used in engineering and physics to express moderate forces conveniently.



  • To put it in perspective:



1 daN=10 N1 \text{ daN} = 10 \text{ N}

Dekane wtons are useful when measuring forces greater than newtons but smaller than hectonewtons.


Newton [N]


The newton (N) is the SI unit of force.



  • It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared.



  • Mathematically:



1 N=1 kgโ‹…m/s21 \text{ N} = 1 \text{ kg} \cdot \text{m/s}^2

  • Named after Sir Isaac Newton for his work on classical mechanics.



  • Commonly used to measure forces such as weight, tension, and thrust in physics and engineering.



Example: The weight of a 1 kg mass under Earth's gravity is approximately 9.8 N.
