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.




Ton-Force (Long) [tonf (UK)]


The long ton-force (also called the UK ton-force) is a unit of force based on the long ton, traditionally used in the United Kingdom.



  • A long ton equals 2,240 pounds (lbs).



  • The long ton-force is the force exerted by a long ton mass under standard gravity.



  • Mathematically:



1 tonf (UK)=2,240 lbs×9.80665 m/s29,964.02 newtons1 \text{ tonf (UK)} = 2,240 \text{ lbs} \times 9.80665 \text{ m/s}^2 \approx 9,964.02 \text{ newtons}

  • It is used in engineering and industries where the long ton is the standard measure of mass.



  • This unit is larger than the short ton-force and differs from the metric ton-force.
