Kilonewton [kN]

The kilonewton (kN) is a unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).

1 \text{ kN} = 1,000 \text{ N}

It represents the force required to accelerate a 1,000 kg mass at 1 meter per second squared.
Kilonewtons are commonly used to measure larger forces in engineering, construction, and physics, such as the load on structures, thrust in engines, or tension in cables.

Example: The force exerted by a 100 kg mass under Earth's gravity is approximately 0.98 kN.

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The pond is rarely used today, having been replaced by the newton, but it may still appear in older scientific literature or certain niche applications.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).
