Convert micronewton to newton

Micronewton

The micronewton (µN) is a unit of force equal to one millionth of a newton (10⁻⁶ N). It is used in precision measurement, nanotechnology, and biomechanics where very small forces must be quantified accurately. Ion thrusters used in spacecraft attitude control, for instance, can produce thrust in the micronewton range. It follows the standard SI prefix "micro-" (µ) for 10⁻⁶.
