Hectonewton [hN]

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

1 hectonewton (hN) equals $10^{2}$ 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 \text{ hN} = 100 \text{ N}

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

Pond [p]

The pond is a historical unit of force, equivalent to the force exerted by gravity on a mass of one gram.

It is part of the gram-force system and was widely used before the adoption of the newton in the SI system.
Mathematically:

1 \text{ pond} = 1 \text{ gram} \times 9.80665 \text{ m/s}^2 = 0.00980665 \text{ newtons}

In other words, 1 pond is approximately 0.00981 newtons.
The pond is rarely used today, having been replaced by the newton, but it may still appear in older scientific literature or certain niche applications.
It is similar in concept to the gram-force (gf).
