Kilopond [kp]


The kilopond (also called kilogram-force, kgf) is a unit of force based on the metric system.



  • It represents the force exerted by gravity on a mass of one kilogram under standard Earth gravity.



  • Mathematically:



1 kp=1 kgร—9.80665 m/s2=9.80665 newtons1 \text{ kp} = 1 \text{ kg} \times 9.80665 \text{ m/s}^2 = 9.80665 \text{ newtons}

  • It is commonly used in engineering and industries, especially before the widespread adoption of the newton (SI unit).



  • The kilopond is equivalent to the kilogram-force (kgf) and is often used interchangeably.



  • Despite being non-SI, it remains popular in some regions for practical measurements of force.




Attonewton [aN]


Attonewton is an extraordinarily small unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).



  • 1 attonewton (aN) equals 10โˆ’1810^{-18} newtons (0.000000000000000001 newton).



  • It is used in highly specialized fields such as quantum physics, nanotechnology, and advanced experimental research where forces are incredibly minute.



  • To put it in perspective:



1 aN=0.000000000000000001 N1 \text{ aN} = 0.000000000000000001 \text{ N}

Attonewtons allow scientists to quantify forces at the tiniest scales imaginable, beyond typical atomic interactions.
