About these units

Femtonewtons

A femtonewton (fN) is one-quadrillionth of a newton. It is used in experimental physics and nanotechnology to measure forces at the atomic scale, such as the forces involved in the interaction between nanoparticles.

Petanewtons

A petanewton (PT) is equal to 1015 newtons. It’s an extremely large unit of force, mostly theoretical, used in astrophysics or high-energy physics to describe forces acting at a massive scale, such as between planets or in star formation.
