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  • The pond is rarely used today, having been replaced by the newton, but it may still appear in older scientific literature or certain niche applications.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




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 J/cm=100 J/m1 \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:



1 J/m=1 N    1 J/cm=100 N1 \text{ J/m} = 1 \text{ N} \implies 1 \text{ J/cm} = 100 \text{ N}

Thus, joule per centimeter expresses a larger force equivalent compared to joule per meter.
