Joules per Centimeter
Joule per centimeter (J/cm) is similar to joule per meter but is used when a finer unit of measurement is needed. It is also used to describe surface energy and tension in materials science.
Decinewtons
A decinewton (dN) is 0.1 newtons. It’s rarely used but could be practical in situations involving small forces, such as in laboratory experiments or precision measurements where high accuracy is needed.
