About these units
Gram-Force
Gram-force (gf) is the force exerted by the weight of one gram under standard gravity. It’s a small unit of force often used in applications like measuring the tension of lightweight objects or precision instruments. Although it’s not an SI unit, gram-force provides an intuitive way to represent small forces.
Giganewtons
A giganewton (GN) is 109 newtons. It’s used to describe extremely large forces, such as the thrust produced by spacecraft or the force involved in geological phenomena like earthquakes. Giganewtons help put into perspective the vast power involved in significant natural or artificial forces.
