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 \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.

Meganewton [MN]

Meganewton is a large unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).

1 meganewton (MN) equals $10^{6}$ newtons (1,000,000 newtons).
It is commonly used to measure very large forces in engineering, such as the thrust of rocket engines or loads on large structures.
To give perspective:

1 \text{ MN} = 1,000,000 \text{ N} = 10^{6} \text{ N}

Meganewtons are useful for quantifying forces much greater than those in everyday life but smaller than giganewtons and above.
