What is force?
Force is a push or pull upon an object resulting from its interaction with another object. When an interaction results in a push or pull, that interaction is a force. Force is a vector quantity, meaning it has both magnitude and direction.
What is the SI unit of force?
The SI unit of force is the Newton (N).
What is the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration?
According to Newton's second law of motion, force (F) is directly proportional to mass (m) and acceleration (a): F = ma. One Newton is defined as the force required to accelerate one kilogram of mass at a rate of one meter per second squared (1 N = 1 kg⋅m/s²).
What is the difference between pound-force (lbf) and pound (mass)?
Pound (lb) is commonly used as a unit of mass in the imperial system. Pound-force (lbf) is a unit of force defined as the force due to gravity on one avoirdupois pound mass under standard gravity. Similarly, kilogram-force (kgf) or kilopond (kp) is the force due to gravity on one kilogram mass under standard gravity.
