How It's Made Rubber Gloves Surgical rubber gloves were first implemented at Johns Hopkins Hospital. Watch this video to see how rubber gloves are made. 02:59.
If the mass m is measured in kilograms and the acceleration a is measured in meters per second squared, then the unit of force is kilogram x meter/second squared. This unit is called the newton: 1 N = 1 kg x 1 m/sÂ².
Some of these derive from a unit of force divided by a unit of area; the SI unit of pressure, the pascal (Pa), for example, is one newton per square metre; similarly, the pound-force per square inch (psi) is the traditional unit of pressure in the imperial and US customary systems.
