Petanewtons
Definition: A petanewton (PN) is a unit of force equal to 10¹⁵ newtons, typically used to measure extremely large forces, such as those in astrophysical phenomena or large-scale engineering applications.
History: The use of petanewtons is primarily found in fields dealing with massive forces, such as astrophysics, planetary science, and advanced engineering. It is often used to express the gravitational forces between celestial bodies or the thrust of powerful propulsion systems.
