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.
the word you are thinking of is joules (symbolized by J), but that's not what force is measured in. force is measured in newtons (symbolized by N). here are the definitions of the two words: + one joule is the work done, or energy expended, by a force of one newton moving one meter along the direction of the force. + the newton is the unit of force derived in the SI system; it is equal to the amount of force required to give a mass of one kilogram an acceleration of one meter per second squared.
