Hectonewton [hN]


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



  • 1 hectonewton (hN) equals 10210^{2} newtons (100 newtons).



  • It is used to measure moderate forces, such as those encountered in mechanical engineering or smaller-scale industrial applications.



  • To put it into perspective:



1 hN=100 N1 \text{ hN} = 100 \text{ N}

Hectonewtons provide a convenient way to express forces larger than newtons but smaller than kilonewtons.



Piconewton [pN]


Piconewton is a very tiny unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).



  • 1 piconewton (pN) equals 10โˆ’1210^{-12} newtons (0.000000000001 newton).



  • It is commonly used in molecular biology, biophysics, and nanotechnology to measure forces at the molecular or atomic scale.



  • To put it in perspective:



1 pN=0.000000000001 N1 \text{ pN} = 0.000000000001 \text{ N}

Piconewtons allow scientists to quantify incredibly small forces, such as those involved in DNA stretching or molecular interactions.
