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.

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.
