Kiloponds
A kilopond (kp) is equivalent to kilogram-force. It was previously used to measure forces exerted by larger masses, but it has been replaced by more standardized units like the newton.
Kilonewtons
A kilonewton (kN) is equal to 1,000 newtons. It is often used in engineering to express larger forces, such as the load-bearing capacity of materials or the thrust produced by rockets. Kilonewtons make it easier to work with the typically larger forces involved in construction, aerospace, and structural analysis.
