A kilogram is a unit of measurement for WEIGHT.

A newton (in the meter-kilogram-second system) is the unit of FORCE required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram one meter per second per second, equal to 100,000 dynes.

Which is used to measure force a newton or a kilogram?

A newton is used to measure force, while a kilogram is used to measure mass. Force is the product of mass and acceleration, according to Newton's second law of motion.


When did Sir Isaac Newton invent the newton meter?

He didn't. The newton unit is defined as a kilogram-meter per second squared, meaning it does not predate the invention of the kilogram, meter, and (scientifically defined) second. The international prototype kilogram was standardized in 1889, so the newton does not predate this year, at least.


What is the relationship between mass and weight using the correct units?

Weight = mass x gravity. Weight (in newton) = mass (in kilogram) x gravity (in meter/second2, equivalent to newton/kilogram). Note: close to Earth's surface, gravity is about 9.8 meter/second2.


How many newton equal to one kilogram?

1kg of mass = 9.81 newtons 1kg = 9.81 newtons 1 newton = 0.101971621 kilogram-force 1 kilogram-force = 9.80665 newton Newton is not a unit of mass like the kilogram, it is a measure of force. A Newton is the amount of force that it takes to accelerate a mass at a rate of 1ms-2 The Earths gravity typically pulls 1kg. with a force of about 9.81N (N=Newton) but it varies a little depending where you are on Earth. So on Earth 0.102 Kg or 102 grams is one whole Newton
