Ounce-Force [ozf]
Ounce-force (ozf) is a unit of force used mainly in the Imperial and US customary systems.
It represents the force exerted by gravity on a mass of one ounce (oz) under standard Earth gravity.
Since there are 16 ounces in a pound-force, mathematically:
1 ozf=161 lbf≈0.278 newtons
Ounce-force is typically used for measuring small forces in applications like mechanical devices, small-scale forces, or packaging.
It provides a convenient way to express forces smaller than a pound-force in everyday and engineering contexts.
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:
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:
Thus, joule per centimeter expresses a larger force equivalent compared to joule per meter.
