Petanewton [PN]
Petanewton is a very large unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).
1 petanewton (PN) equals 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.
Mathematically:
Petanewtons are mainly used in theoretical and high-scale physics contexts.
Ton-Force (Metric) [tf]
Ton-force (metric), also called tonne-force or metric ton-force (tf), is a unit of force based on the force exerted by one metric ton (1,000 kilograms) under standard gravity.
Defined as the force exerted by a mass of 1 metric ton under Earth's gravity (9.80665 m/s²).
Mathematically:
Though not an SI unit, it is widely used in engineering and heavy industries to measure large forces.
Example: A force of 5 tf corresponds to approximately 49,033 newtons.
