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.
What is the unit of force called? This unit of measurement was named after physicist and mathematician Sir Isaac Newton, who first understood and explained the nature of gravity, which is the most widely observable force in the universe. Gravity is the force of attraction that two objects exert on each other.
