Hundredweight (Us)
The short hundredweight or cental (cwt) is a unit of mass used in the United States equal to 100 avoirdupois pounds, or approximately 45.3592 kilograms. It is distinguished from the British (long) hundredweight, which equals 112 pounds. The US hundredweight is used in agriculture and commodity trading, particularly for grains and other bulk goods.
Kilogram-force
The kilogram-force ( kgf or kg F ), or kilopond ( kp , from Latin: pondus , lit. 'weight'), is a gravitational metric unit of force. It is equal to the magnitude of the force exerted on one kilogram of mass in a 9.80665 m/s 2 gravitational field (standard gravity, a conventional value approximating the average magnitude of gravity on Earth). Therefore, one kilogram-force is by definition equal to 9.806 65 N. Similarly, a gram-force is 9.806 65 mN, and a milligram-force is 9.806 65 μN.
