And how to make the MathCAT know that 1 kilogram is equal to 9.81 Newton?
You were already told that this is nonsense! 1 kilogram IS NOT 9.81 Newton!! MASS IS NOT FORCE!

You are confusing kilogram (dimension: mass) with kilogram-force (dimension: force) which also was called Kilopond.

"kgf" is a unit for force which is also pre-defined in Prime

According the unit "ksc" - its defined as Kilogram-force per square centimeter.

This unit is NOT predefined in Prime, but if you need a pressure unit which is not predefined

you always can define your own units. I would suggest doing so at the top of the sheet in a collapsed area and not using the global assignment.
When you define a new unit, you should also label it as "unit" for consistency.
