Ounce-Force Inch

Ounce-force inch (ozf·in) is a unit of torque or moment of force, representing the force of one ounce-force applied at a distance of one inch from the pivot point.

History/Origin

The ounce-force inch originated from the imperial system of units, primarily used in engineering and mechanical contexts to measure torque. It has been used historically in the United States and other countries employing imperial units, but has largely been replaced by the metric system in scientific applications.

Current Use

Today, ounce-force inch is primarily used in specific engineering fields, such as small-scale mechanical and automotive applications, where imperial units are still prevalent. It is considered a non-SI unit and is less common in modern scientific and international standards.


Kilocalorie (Th)

A kilocalorie (kcal) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 calories, commonly used to measure the energy content of food and beverages.

History/Origin

The kilocalorie originated in the 19th century as a unit to quantify heat energy, especially in nutrition and thermodynamics. It was widely adopted in the early 20th century for dietary energy measurement.

Current Use

Today, the kilocalorie is primarily used in nutrition to express the energy content of food and drinks, although it is often simply called a 'calorie' in everyday language.
