They can be in either. Just like you measure distance in miles or in kilometers you can measure weight which is actually just the Force of Gravity in either pounds or Newtons. Newtons is the official SI unit of measure and pounds is the imperial old fashion way.
My 10 year old and I decided it was ounces. At first we thought it was pounds, but she came up with a good point. Pounds are a bigger increments. Weight = Pounds would be more like Height = Feet. Height to inches is a smaller measurement so the equivalent would be ounces. At least that's what we think.
490 newtons (110.2 pounds)
500 newtons. (Roughly 112.3 pounds.)
Not possible to answer - a litre is a measurement of volume, while a kilogram is a measurement of weight!
110 pounds.
The measurement for the force of gravity is called weight. It is measured in units such as pounds or newtons, depending on the system of measurement being used.
To convert pounds to newtons, multiply the weight in pounds by 4.448. Therefore, 150 pounds is equivalent to 667.2 newtons.
The weight of the toddler in pounds is 30.0 pounds. To convert this to newtons, you can use the given conversion factor: 1.00 newton equals 0.228 pounds. Therefore, the weight of the toddler in newtons is (30.0 pounds / 0.228 pounds) = 131.58 newtons.
Actually, you've got the weight right here. Pounds (lbs) is a measurement unit of weight. If you want the mass in kilograms it's 11.2 kg and the weight in Newtons is 109.8 N.
Weight The unit of measurement for gravitational pull is the newton.
-- On Earth, 196.1 newtons (44.09 pounds). -- On the moon, 32.5 newtons (7.30 pounds).
The standard international unit of weight is the kilogram.Other measurement units exist, such as the pound.1 kilogram = 2.2 poundsAnswerUnfortunately, the original answer confuses 'weight' and 'mass'. The kilogram is the SI base unit for mass, NOT weight. Weight is a force and, therefore, measured in newtons. Similarly, the pound is used to measure mass, NOT weight.
Newtons (N) or Pounds (lbs)
121 lbs = 54.9 kg x 9.80 m / s(squared) = 538N
weight.
pounds
To convert 120 pounds to newtons, you would use the conversion factor of 1 pound is equal to 4.45 newtons. Thus, 120 pounds is equal to 534 newtons.
