What is a teranewton?

A teranewton (TN) is an SI derived unit of force equal to 10^12 newtons, used to measure extremely large forces such as planetary gravitational forces.

How many newtons are in an exanewton?

An exanewton (EN) equals 10^18 newtons, making it suitable for describing forces on a cosmic or astrophysical scale.

When should I use exanewtons instead of teranewtons?

Use exanewtons to express forces that are significantly larger than those measured in teranewtons, particularly in astrophysics and large-scale impact studies.
