What is an exanewton used for?

An exanewton is used to measure extremely large forces, such as those between massive celestial bodies or in high-energy astrophysical events.

Why convert to kilopound-force?

Kilopound-force is a practical unit for expressing large forces within the US customary engineering system, useful for structural design and load specifications.

Is kilopound-force an SI unit?

No, kilopound-force is not part of the SI system; it belongs to the US customary units used in engineering contexts.
