Units of force

Newton (unit)

The newton (symbol: N) is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as 1 kg⋅m/s2, the force which gives a mass of 1 kilogram an acceleration of 1 metre per second per second. It is named after Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on classical mechanics, specifically Newton's second law of motion. (Wikipedia).

What is a Newton? An Explanation

This video goes over an explanation of the metric unit for force which is the newton. The newton is the derived unit in the metric system for force. A force is a push or a pull. One newton is equal to the force that would give a one kilogram mass an acceleration of one meter per second s

What is a Newton-Meter? An Explanation

This video explains the two different situations where the unit of measurement is the newton-meter. The first case is for work and energy. The unit for work is the joule. Work is done when a force (newtons) is applied through a distance (meters). Work is calculated as the force times the
