Gram-Force [gf]

The gram-force (gf) is a unit of force based on the force exerted by one gram of mass under standard gravity.

It is defined as the force exerted by a mass of 1 gram under the acceleration due to gravity (9.80665 m/s²).
Mathematically:

1 \text{ gf} = 1 \text{ g} \times 9.80665 \text{ m/s}^2 = 9.80665 \times 10^{-3} \text{ N} = 0.00980665 \text{ N}

Although not an SI unit, gram-force is used in some fields like engineering and material science for small force measurements.

Example: The force due to a 500 g mass is 500 gf, which is approximately 4.9 newtons.

Teranewton [TN]

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

1 teranewton (TN) equals $10^{12}$ newtons.
It is used to express extremely large forces, such as those found in planetary science, large-scale engineering, or astrophysics.
To give perspective:

1 \text{ TN} = 1,000,000,000,000 \text{ N} = 10^{12} \text{ N}

Teranewtons are useful for describing massive forces far beyond typical human-made scales but smaller than petanewtons or exanewtons.
