About these units
Piconewtons
A piconewton (pN) is one-trillionth of a newton. It’s often used in biophysics to measure forces within cells or the binding strength between molecules, providing a unit that’s suitable for describing the tiny interactions within biological systems.
Kilogram-Force
Kilogram-force (kgf) is the force exerted by the weight of one kilogram under standard gravity. It is often used in engineering to describe the force of everyday objects and loads, such as the force exerted by a heavy tool or piece of equipment. It is a non-SI unit but still finds practical use in many fields.
