A "newton" is a unit of force. Other units of force are pound, ton, and dyne. (Not kilogram.)
When you push on 1 kilogram of mass with 1 newton of force, the kilogram accelerates
at the rate of (1 more meter per second) per second.
1 pound of force is about the same as 4.45 newtons.
1 newton is about the same as 3.6 ounces of force.

What are the contributions of newton in physics?
"Physics" pretty much covers it. It's difficult to overstate the importance of Newton to classical physics. "Modern Physics" is non-Newtonian, but just about everything in physics that was known prior to, say, 1890 can be traced directly or indirectly back to Newton.
A unit of force in physics?
Newton
How did Newton's interest in alchemy further his work in physics?
Newton's work in physics was based on his interest in alchemy. That interest led him to experiment and in doing so, it resulted in his discoveries about physics.

Are scientist still using or studying isaac newton law?
Newton's Laws are the basis for physics. without those, there would be no physics. without physics, we would be cavemen. there would be no cars, no TV's....
