Pound-Force
Pound-force (lbf) is the force exerted by gravity on a one-pound mass. It is a commonly used unit in the United States to describe everyday forces, such as the force exerted by objects or people.
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.
