  2. Newton (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    A newton is defined as 1 kgm/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.

  3. Specific strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_strength

    The SI unit for specific strength is Pa⋅m 3 /kg, or N⋅m/kg, which is dimensionally equivalent to m 2 /s 2, though the latter form is rarely used. Specific strength has the same units as specific energy , and is related to the maximum specific energy of rotation that an object can have without flying apart due to centrifugal force .

  4. List of conversion factors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_conversion_factors

    A force capable of giving a mass of one kilogram an acceleration of one metre per second per second. [32] = 1 N = 1 kgm/s 2: ounce-force: ozf ≡ g 0 × 1 oz

  5. Gravitational acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_acceleration

    It has dimension of acceleration (L/T 2) and it is measured in units of newtons per kilogram (N/kg) or, equivalently, in meters per second squared (m/s 2). In its original concept, gravity was a force between point masses.

  7. Newton-second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton-second

    The newton-second (also newton second; symbol: N⋅s or N s) [1] is the unit of impulse in the International System of Units (SI). It is dimensionally equivalent to the momentum unit kilogram-metre per second (kgm/s).

  9. Gravity of Earth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravity_of_Earth

    In SI units, this acceleration is expressed in metres per second squared (in symbols, m/s 2 or m·s −2) or equivalently in newtons per kilogram (N/kg or N·kg −1). Near Earth's surface, the acceleration due to gravity, accurate to 2 significant figures , is 9.8 m/s 2 (32 ft/s 2 ).
