Pound-Force [lbf]

Pound-force (lbf) is a unit of force commonly used in the United States and some other countries using the Imperial system.

It is defined as the force exerted by gravity on a mass of one pound (lb) under standard Earth gravity.
Mathematically:

1 \text{ lbf} = 1 \text{ lb} \times 9.80665 \text{ m/s}^2 \approx 4.44822 \text{ newtons}

Pound-force is widely used in engineering, mechanics, and everyday contexts in countries that use Imperial or US customary units.
It measures force similarly to how newtons do in the metric system but based on pounds instead of kilograms.

Micronewton [µN]

Micronewton is a very small unit of force in the International System of Units (SI).

1 micronewton (µN) equals $10^{-6}$ newtons (0.000001 newton).
It is used to measure extremely small forces in fields like microelectronics, nanotechnology, and sensitive scientific experiments.
To put it in perspective:

1 \text{ µN} = 0.000001 \text{ N}

Micronewtons allow precise quantification of tiny forces that are beyond the sensitivity of larger units like millinewtons.
