Convert kilogram-force square second/meter to pennyweight [pwt] Online | Free weight-and-mass Converter
Kilogram-force second squared per meter (kgf·s²/m)
This is a derived unit combining mechanical units and force.
Kilogram-force (kgf): A unit of force defined as the force exerted by gravity on one kilogram of mass at standard gravity (9.80665 m/s²).
1 kgf ≈ 9.80665 newtons (N).
The unit kgf·s²/m can be interpreted as a measure related to mechanical impedance or compliance in some physics or engineering contexts, combining force, time squared, and distance.
Breakdown:
Force (kgf) × Time² (s²) / Length (m)
It has dimensions of mass × time² / length (since 1 kgf ≈ 9.81 N = kg·m/s²)
This unit is uncommon but might appear in specific engineering or physics formulas related to dynamic systems or mechanical vibrations.

Pennyweight (pwt)
The pennyweight (pwt) is a unit of mass traditionally used in the precious metals and jewelry industries. It is part of the troy and apothecary weight systems.
One pennyweight equals 1/20 of a troy ounce, or 24 grains, which is approximately 1.555 grams.
Pennyweights are commonly used to measure gold, silver, and gemstones, offering a precise small-scale weight unit for valuable materials.
Summary:
1 pennyweight = 1/20 troy ounce ≈ 1.555 grams
Used mainly in precious metals and jewelry
Part of the troy weight system
