About Force Units
Newton (N) - The SI unit of force. One newton is the force needed to accelerate 1 kg at 1 m/s².
Kilonewton (kN) - Equal to 1,000 newtons. Commonly used in engineering.
Meganewton (MN) - Equal to 1,000,000 newtons. Used for large-scale engineering.
Dyne - CGS unit of force. One dyne equals 10⁻⁵ newtons.
Pound-force (lbf) - Imperial unit. The force exerted by gravity on one pound mass.
Kilogram-force (kgf) - Force exerted by gravity on one kilogram mass.
Poundal - Imperial unit. Force needed to accelerate 1 lb at 1 ft/s².
Gram-force (gf) - Force exerted by gravity on one gram mass.
