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=116 lbf0.278 newtons1 \text{ ozf} = \frac{1}{16} \text{ lbf} \approx 0.278 \text{ 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.




Pond [p]


The pond is a historical unit of force, equivalent to the force exerted by gravity on a mass of one gram.



  • It is part of the gram-force system and was widely used before the adoption of the newton in the SI system.



  • Mathematically:



1 pond=1 gram×9.80665 m/s2=0.00980665 newtons1 \text{ pond} = 1 \text{ gram} \times 9.80665 \text{ m/s}^2 = 0.00980665 \text{ newtons}

  • In other words, 1 pond is approximately 0.00981 newtons.



  • The pond is rarely used today, having been replaced by the newton, but it may still appear in older scientific literature or certain niche applications.



  • It is similar in concept to the gram-force (gf).
