Question

The metric unit of force is _____.

Answer 1

Answer:

The metric unit of force is the Newton (N)

Explanation:

Force is defined as the product between mass and acceleration:

$F=ma$

The mass of an object (m) is measured in kilograms (kg), while the acceleration (a) is measured in meters per squared second (m/s^2). So, the metric unit of the force is

$[F]=[kg] \frac{[m]}{[s^2]}$

This unit is called Newton, its symbol is N, and this is the metric unit of the force.

Answer 2

The metric unit is the Newton (N), or the $\frac{kgm}{s^{2} }$
