Nanonewton [nN]

Nanonewton is an extremely small unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).

1 nanonewton (nN) equals $10^{-9}$ newtons (0.000000001 newton).
It is used in highly sensitive scientific fields like atomic physics, nanotechnology, and precision instrumentation.
To put it in perspective:

1 \text{ nN} = 0.000000001 \text{ N}

Nanonewtons help measure forces at microscopic and nanoscopic scales where extremely low force values are involved.

Joule per Centimeter [J/cm]

Joule per centimeter is a unit of energy per unit length.

It measures how much energy is distributed or transferred over each centimeter.
Since 1 centimeter = 0.01 meter, joule per centimeter is related to joule per meter by:

1 \text{ J/cm} = 100 \text{ J/m}

Like joule per meter, this unit is used to describe energy density along a line, such as tension in a wire or energy stored per unit length in materials.
Also, it can relate to force, since:
