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:

1 \text{ J/m} = 1 \text{ N} \quad (\text{since } 1 \text{ N} = 1 \text{ J/m})

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

Gram-Force [gf]

The gram-force (gf) is a unit of force based on the force exerted by one gram of mass under standard gravity.

It is defined as the force exerted by a mass of 1 gram under the acceleration due to gravity (9.80665 m/s²).
Mathematically:

1 \text{ gf} = 1 \text{ g} \times 9.80665 \text{ m/s}^2 = 9.80665 \times 10^{-3} \text{ N} = 0.00980665 \text{ N}

Although not an SI unit, gram-force is used in some fields like engineering and material science for small force measurements.

Example: The force due to a 500 g mass is 500 gf, which is approximately 4.9 newtons.
