what is the si base unit of force

Open in App
Solution

Ok.
I will help you find SI unit of force .
First , write equation of force.

Force , F = mass × acceleration.

Now, Si unit of mass = kg
Si unit of acceleration = m/s^2

Hence, SI unit of force = m× a= kg × m/s^2.

Hence, si unit of force is kgm/s^2 .

This unit was named newton, in honor of scientist Issac Newton.

So, SI unit of force =kgm/s^2 = Newton(N).
