What is the unit of thrust?

The unit of thrust is the same as the unit of force - in S.I. units that is the 'newton'. In the English system of measurement pounds-force was common. In S.I. units for very small quantities of force, dynes are used.


A pulley system always causes the direction of the output force to be the opposite of the input force true or false?

False. A pulley system can change the direction of the force applied, but it does not always result in the output force being in the opposite direction of the input force. The direction of the output force depends on the configuration of the pulleys in the system.


Force is measured using what units?

Force is typically measured in Newtons (N) in the International System of Units (SI).


How do you express force in science?

In the metric system, or SI, the unit of force is the newton.


Force is measured in which units?

Force is typically measured in units called Newtons (N) in the International System of Units (SI). Another common unit for force is pound-force (lbf) in the Imperial system.


What direction of force is positive?

In a coordinate system, positive force is typically defined as acting in the direction of the positive axis. For example, in a one-dimensional system, positive force would be in the positive direction of the axis, while negative force would be in the negative direction.


A pulley system can?

Change the direction of force and multiply the force.


Sometimes force is measured in SI units International System of Units called?

In SI system, it is measured in Newton(N).


What is the metric unit for force divided by weight?

Force is expressed in what unit of measure?

There are many units of force. The standard one in the SI system is the newton. Others include dynes and pounds-force.


What are the three characteristics of force?

Force is a vector quantity with both magnitude and direction. Force can cause objects to accelerate or change their state of motion. The SI unit for force is the Newton.


Work is measured in the same units as what?

Work is measured in the same units as energy, which is joules (J) in the International System of Units (SI) or foot-pounds (ft-lb) in the imperial system. Work is defined as the transfer of energy when a force acts on an object and displaces it in the direction of the force.
