The newton is the unit of force derived in the SI system; it is equal to the amount of forc
e required to give a mass of one kilogram an acceleration of one meter per second squar
ed.
Algebraically:
1N= 1 (kg x m)/ s^2
1 N is the force of Earth's gravity on an object with a mass of about 102 g (1⁄9.8 kg) (su
ch as a small apple).
On Earth's surface, a mass of 1 kg exerts a force of approximately 9.80665 N [down] (o
r 1 kgf). The approximation of 1 kg corresponding to 10 N is sometimes used as a rule o
f thumb in everyday life and in engineering.
The decanewton (daN) = 10 N is increasingly used when specifying load bearing capacit
y of items such as ropes and anti-vibration mounts because it is approximately equivalen
t to the more familiar non-SI unit of force, the kgf.
The force of Earth's gravity on a human being with a mass of 70 kg is approximately 68
7 N.
The dot product of force and distance is mechanical work. Thus, in SI units, a force of 1
N exerted over a distance of 1 m is 1 N·m of work. The Work-Energy Theorem states tha
t the work done on a body is equal to the change in energy of the body. 1 N·m = 1 J (joul
e), the SI unit of energy.
It is common to see forces expressed in kilonewtons or kN, where 1 kN = 1 000 N.
