What are Newton and Ton-force

Definition of Newton

A Newton, symbolized as 'N', is the SI unit of force. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a one kilogram mass by one meter per second squared. Named after Sir Isaac Newton, the Newton encapsulates the laws of motion and gravitational pull, serving as a fundamental unit in physics and engineering.

Definition of Ton-force

A Ton-force, often abbreviated as 'tonf', is a unit of force that is not part of the International System of Units (SI). Often used in the United States and the UK, one ton-force long is approximately equivalent to 2,240 pounds-force, representing the gravitational force exerted by a long ton (2,240 pounds) under Earth's gravity.
