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.
Hectonewtons
A hectonewton (hN) is equal to 100 newtons. It’s a relatively uncommon unit of force but can be useful when dealing with intermediate-scale forces that fall between kilonewtons and newtons. It might be used in measuring the force applied by certain mechanical devices.
