Millinewton [mN]

Millinewton is a small unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).

1 millinewton (mN) equals $10^{-3}$ newtons (0.001 newton).
It is commonly used to measure very small forces, such as in microengineering, delicate instrumentation, or biomechanical applications.
To put it in perspective:

1 \text{ mN} = 0.001 \text{ N}

Millinewtons are useful for expressing forces smaller than centinewtons, allowing precise measurement of low-force phenomena.

Petanewton [PN]

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

1 petanewton (PN) equals $10^{15}$ newtons.
It represents forces much larger than those encountered in everyday life or typical engineering but smaller than exanewtons.
Such forces might be relevant in astrophysics, like the force between massive celestial bodies.
