Giganewton [GN]

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

1 giganewton (GN) equals $10^{9}$ newtons.
This unit is used to express very large forces, such as those encountered in heavy engineering projects, large-scale structures, or significant natural forces like earthquakes.
To put it in perspective:

1 \text{ GN} = 1,000,000,000 \text{ N} = 10^{9} \text{ N}

Giganewtons help quantify forces far beyond everyday scales but smaller than teranewtons and above.

Centinewton [cN]

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

1 centinewton (cN) equals $10^{-2}$ 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 \text{ cN} = 0.01 \text{ N}

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