So,
Recall Newton's Second Law of Motion: force = mass x acceleration
Also recall:
acceleration = velocity/time
velocity = distance/time
Distance is expressed in meters.
Time is expressed in seconds.
Mass is expressed in kilograms.
v = m/s
a = m/s^2
F = m * a
F = kg * m/s^2
The unit for force is the Newton (N).
