What is a gram-force centimeter?

A gram-force centimeter is a non-SI unit of energy defined as the work done by a force of one gram-force acting through a displacement of one centimeter, equal to 9.80665×10⁻⁵ joule.

What is therm (EC) used for?

The therm (EC) is an energy unit used primarily in European contexts for natural gas billing, metering, and reporting energy consumption statistics.

Why is the conversion between gram-force centimeter and therm (EC) useful?

This conversion helps relate tiny mechanical energy measurements to larger energy units used in natural gas energy supply and regional statistics.
