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.

Petanewton [PN]

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

1 petanewton (PN) equals $10^{15}$ newtons.
It represents forces much larger than those encountered in everyday life or typical engineering but smaller than exanewtons.
Such forces might be relevant in astrophysics, like the force between massive celestial bodies.

Mathematically:

1 \text{ PN} = 10^{15} \text{ N}

Petanewtons are mainly used in theoretical and high-scale physics contexts.
