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.
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.
