Joule per Meter [J/m]

Joule per meter is a unit that represents energy per unit length.

• 
  

  Joule (J) is the SI unit of energy.

  
  
• 
  

  When expressed as joule per meter (J/m), it describes how much energy is distributed or transferred along each meter of length.

  
  
• 
  

  Commonly used in contexts such as:

  
  
  • 
    

    Energy density along a line (e.g., tension in a string or energy stored per unit length in materials).

    
    
  • 
    

    Describing work done per meter traveled.

    
    
  
  
• 
  

  It can also relate to forces when considering energy changes over distance:

  
  

This means joule per meter can be equivalent to a newton, representing force.

Dekane wton [daN]

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

• 
  

  1 dekane wton (daN) equals $10^{1}$ newtons (10 newtons).

  
  
• 
  

  It is commonly used in engineering and physics to express moderate forces conveniently.

  
  
• 
  

  To put it in perspective:

  
  

Dekane wtons are useful when measuring forces greater than newtons but smaller than hectonewtons.
