The S.I. unit of force is the Newton, symbol N.
1 N is equal to the net force required to produce an acceleration of 1 m/s2 in a body of mass 1 kg.

Is 40 newtons a unit of acceleration?
No, it is unit of force, which is mass times acceleration
What is acceleration force?
In physics there is no such thing as an "acceleration force". A force however will produce an acceleration, according to Newton's Second Law: F=ma, or force = mass x acceleration. Solving for acceleration: acceleration = force / mass
Is mass times acceleration a force?
Yes, according to Newton's Second Law, F = ma. This means that for more mass, you need more force to get the same acceleration; also that, with more force, there will be more acceleration. This can be used to define the unit of force, as it is actually done in the SI: Force (in Newton) = (mass) (acceleration) = kg. x m / sec^2.
What two factors affect an object acceleration?
Force and mass. Acceleration is force per unit of mass (a=f/m).
How is newton related to acceleration and velocity?
The Newton is the unit for force. An unbalanced force is required to cause acceleration, which is a change in velocity.

What is the acceleration of mass?
force acting on unit mass of body is the acceleration of that body.
Is mass times acceleration a force?
Yes, according to Newton's Second Law, F = ma. This means that for more mass, you need more force to get the same acceleration; also that, with more force, there will be more acceleration. This can be used to define the unit of force, as it is actually done in the SI: Force (in Newton) = (mass) (acceleration) = kg. x m / sec^2.

The Newton is the unit for force. An unbalanced force is required to cause acceleration, which is a change in velocity.
How is the unit of force derived from SI unit?
In the SI, the unit of force is defined by Newton's Second Law (force = mass x acceleration). The unit, called Newton, is the product of a mass (in kilograms) and an acceleration (in meters per square second). That is, a newton is the force required to provide a mass of one kilogram with an acceleration of one meter per second square.
The SI unit for expressing gravity is?
There is no unit of "gravity". Gravity is described in terms of its effects, namely acceleration and force. SI unit of force: [ newton ] = 1 kilogram-meter/second2 SI unit of acceleration: meter/second2
What is the meaning of the word geforce?
According to the dictionary, a G-force is the result of acceleration of gravity. G-force is a unit of force equal to the force exerted by gravity and is used to tell the force a body is being subjected to when its accelerated.
How is acceleration related to force and mass?
According to Newton's second law Force is equivalent to mass times acceleration.
Is the quantity mass times acceleraton is a force?
Well, according to Newton's Second law, force equals mass times acceleration. What this really do is relate the three quantities when you accelerate an object. It also gives the basis for defining the unit of force (in the SI, the Newton is used as a unit of force).
In Physics what does the term gforce refer to?
G-force is short for gravitational force and is not technically a force. Instead, it is a measurement of acceleration, that is force per unit mass. It is generally measured in terms of the acceleration of free-fall, that is acceleration due to gravity.
