Quintal (Metric) [cwt]

The metric quintal is a unit of mass equal to 100 kilograms. It is widely used in agriculture and commerce for measuring bulk goods like grains, produce, and livestock feed.

Though called "quintal," it differs from other regional versions like the British hundredweight (cwt). In some countries, especially those using the metric system, the quintal serves as a convenient intermediate unit between kilograms and metric tons.

Summary:

1 metric quintal = 100 kg
Common in farming and trade for easy large-quantity measurements

Kiloton (Metric) [kt]

The kiloton (kt) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1,000 metric tons or 1,000,000 kilograms (one million kilograms). It is commonly used to measure large quantities, such as the weight of ships, large cargo, or explosive energy equivalent in nuclear physics.

In the context of explosives, one kiloton often refers to the energy released by the explosion of 1,000 tons of TNT, a standard measure in describing the yield of nuclear bombs.

The kiloton provides a convenient scale for expressing very large masses or energy amounts in scientific, industrial, and military fields.
