Joule per Centimeter [J/cm]

Joule per centimeter is a unit of energy per unit length.

It measures how much energy is distributed or transferred over each centimeter.
Since 1 centimeter = 0.01 meter, joule per centimeter is related to joule per meter by:

1 \text{ J/cm} = 100 \text{ J/m}

Like joule per meter, this unit is used to describe energy density along a line, such as tension in a wire or energy stored per unit length in materials.
Also, it can relate to force, since:

1 \text{ J/m} = 1 \text{ N} \implies 1 \text{ J/cm} = 100 \text{ N}

Thus, joule per centimeter expresses a larger force equivalent compared to joule per meter.

Newton [N]

The newton (N) is the SI unit of force.

It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared.
Mathematically:

1 \text{ N} = 1 \text{ kg} \cdot \text{m/s}^2

Named after Sir Isaac Newton for his work on classical mechanics.
Commonly used to measure forces such as weight, tension, and thrust in physics and engineering.

Example: The weight of a 1 kg mass under Earth's gravity is approximately 9.8 N.
