About these units
Ounce-force (ozf)
- Definition
- An ounce-force (ozf) is the gravitational force on one ounce of mass, about 0.278 newtons.
- History
- It is the small-force counterpart of the pound-force.
- Current use
- Ounce-force measures small forces such as switch actuation and spring tension.
Kilonewton (kN)
- Definition
- A kilonewton (kN) is 1,000 newtons, a convenient size for structural and automotive forces.
- History
- It is a metric multiple of the newton.
- Current use
- Kilonewtons rate structural loads, crash forces, and rocket thrust.
