What are Newton and Pound-force

A Newton is the SI base unit of force. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at the rate of one meter per second squared. Named after Sir Isaac Newton, it embodies the principle of his second law of motion.

Pound-force is a unit of force in the imperial system of units. It is the force exerted by gravity on a pound-mass at the Earth's surface. One pound-force is equal to the gravitational force on a mass of one pound at a standard gravity of 9.80665 m/s².

History of Newton and Pound-force

The Newton square Meter to Pound-force square Foot Converter is a tool that emerged from the need to bridge two different measurement systems: the metric and the imperial. It enables engineers, mechanics, and scientists to translate torque values seamlessly between these units, ensuring precision and understanding in international contexts.
