  2. Newton (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_(unit)

    A newton is defined as 1 kg⋅m/s 2 (it is a named derived unit defined in terms of the SI base units). [1]: 137 One newton is, therefore, the force needed to accelerate one kilogram of mass at the rate of one metre per second squared in the direction of the applied force.

    For example, according to the capacitance row of the table, if a capacitor has a capacitance of 1 F in SI, then it has a capacitance of (10 −9 c 2) cm in ESU; but it is incorrect to replace "1 F" with "(10 −9 c 2) cm" within an equation or formula. (This warning is a special aspect of electromagnetism units.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mks_units

    The metre, kilogram, second system of units, also known more briefly as MKS units or the MKS system, [1] [2] [3] is a physical system of measurement based on the metre, kilogram, and second (MKS) as base units. Distances are described in terms of metres, mass in terms of kilograms and time in seconds.

    To avoid this, the kilopond was first defined at sea level and a latitude of 45 degrees, since 1902 via the standard gravity of 9.806 65 m/s 2. [ 2 ] Further disadvantages are inconsistencies in the definition of derived units such as horsepower (1 PS = 75 kp⋅m/s) and the missing link to electric, magnetic or thermodynamic units.
