Unit definitions

The newton is the SI unit of force. It is the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared.

${10}^{3}$ newtons equal one kilonewton.

Pound-force is the force exerted by a mass of one pound in standard gravity ($gₙ$) ($1\ \text{lbf} \approx 4.448\,22\ \text{N}$).

Kilogram-force is the force exerted by a mass of one kilogram in standard gravity ($gₙ$) ($1\ \text{kgf} = 9.806\,65\ \text{N}$).

Gram-force is the force exerted by a mass of one gram in standard gravity ($gₙ$) ($1\ \text{kgf} = 9.806\,65\ \text{N}$).

The dyne is a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second system. $1$ dyne is equal to $10^{-5}$ newtons.
