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:

  
  

• 
  

  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:

  
  

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

Ton-Force (Long) [tonf (UK)]

The long ton-force (also called the UK ton-force) is a unit of force based on the long ton, traditionally used in the United Kingdom.

• 
  

  A long ton equals 2,240 pounds (lbs).

  
  
• 
  

  The long ton-force is the force exerted by a long ton mass under standard gravity.

  
  
• 
  

  Mathematically:

  
  

• 
  

  It is used in engineering and industries where the long ton is the standard measure of mass.

  
  
• 
  

  This unit is larger than the short ton-force and differs from the metric ton-force.
