How this system works
A newton is the force that accelerates one kilogram at one metre per second squared. Pound-force is the force of standard gravity on one avoirdupois pound, using gn = 9.80665 m/s². The dyne is the CGS cousin: 10⁻⁵ newtons.
Base unit: newton. Newton is SI; Pound-force is US customary.
