What are Inch and Newton

Definition of Inch

An inch (in) is a unit of length in the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. Historically, it was based on the width of a human thumb; today, it is defined as exactly 25.4 millimeters. The inch is widely used in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom, and remains a standard unit for measuring screen sizes, the size of nails, and the thickness of materials like lumber.

Definition of Newton

A newton (N) is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit of force. It is named after Sir Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on classical mechanics. A newton is defined as the force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by one meter per second squared (1 kg⋅m/s²). The newton reflects the relationship between mass, acceleration, and force, playing a crucial role in various scientific and engineering disciplines.
