About these units

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.

Teranewtons

A teranewton (TN) is 1012 newtons, a very large force typically used to describe large-scale astronomical phenomena or the massive forces involved in planetary activities. It’s not commonly used in everyday applications but is useful for conveying the magnitude of cosmic events.
