If it's acceptable, I think "thrust" (as caused by a reaction motor) would be ?{yuvtaHghach}, and not a word based on {ghoS} or {jop}, which have to do with hand weapons. A word for "measurement" might be ?{juvlI'ghach} for the practice of measurement (-lI'- due to the deliberate nature of the activity) or maybe better {juvwI' QeD} or {juvmeH QeD}.</div>
