About these units
Dekanewtons
A dekanewton (daN) represents 10 newtons of force. It is a convenient unit for representing forces in contexts where newtons are too small, but kilonewtons are too large. Dekanewtons are occasionally used in mechanical and engineering applications.
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.
