Metric (SI) Units
* Force: Newton (N)
* Weight: Newton (N)
* Mass: Kilogram (kg)
* Acceleration: Meter per second squared (m/s²)
Imperial Units
* Force: Pound-force (lbf)
* Weight: Pound-force (lbf)
* Mass: Pound-mass (lbm)
* Acceleration: Foot per second squared (ft/s²)
Important Notes:
* Force and Weight:
* Force is a general concept, a push or pull.
* Weight is the specific force of gravity acting on an object's mass. Both are measured in the same units.
* Mass vs. Weight:
* Mass is the amount of matter in an object. It's a fundamental property that remains constant.
* Weight is the force of gravity acting on an object's mass. It can change depending on the gravitational field (like on the moon).
* Relationship:
* The relationship between force (F), mass (m), and acceleration (a) is described by Newton's Second Law of Motion: F = ma
