Centinewtons
A centinewton (cN) is 0.01 newtons, making it useful for expressing very small forces. It might be used in situations involving micro-robotics or precision instruments where delicate forces are applied.
Newtons
A newton is the standard unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is named after Sir Isaac Newton in honor of his work in physics, particularly his second law of motion. One newton is the amount of force needed to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by one meter per second squared. Newtons are widely used to measure forces in engineering, mechanics, and daily life, such as the force you exert when pushing a door.
