What are Newton and Ton-force

Definition of Newton

A Newton, symbolized as N, is the International System of Units (SI) derived 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, it quantifies the force necessary to impart motion, adhering to his second law of motion.

Definition of Ton-force

A Ton-force, or tonne-force, is a non-SI unit of force. It is often used to denote the force exerted by one short ton of mass under the influence of Earth's gravity. One ton-force is approximately equal to 8,896.443230521 newtons. It is not an official unit within any system but is commonly utilized in engineering and applied physics.
