About these units

Millinewtons

A millinewton (mN) represents 0.001 newtons. It is useful in describing minute forces, such as the force required to depress a key on a keyboard or other sensitive components in consumer electronics.

Piconewtons

A piconewton (pN) is one-trillionth of a newton. It’s often used in biophysics to measure forces within cells or the binding strength between molecules, providing a unit that’s suitable for describing the tiny interactions within biological systems.
