What is a gram-force centimeter?

It is a non-SI unit of energy representing the work done by one gram-force acting over a one-centimeter distance.

Why convert gram-force centimeters to megajoules?

Converting to megajoules standardizes very small mechanical energy values into a large-scale SI unit suitable for engineering and industrial use.

Is this conversion useful for everyday energy measurements?

No, due to the extremely small magnitude differences, it is intended for scientific or technical energy evaluations rather than everyday use.
