Monica Tanner · Answer 1

This equation is one of the most useful in classical physics. It is a concise statement of Isaac Newton's Second Law of Motion, holding both the proportions and vectors of the Second Law. It translates as: The net force on an object is equal to the mass of the object multiplied by the acceleration of the object.

Carla Moyer · Answer 2

One 'Newton' is the amount of force that will accelerate 1 kilogram of mass at the rate of 1 meter per second-squared. Its units are kg-m/s^2. One Newton is equivalent to about 3.6 ounces of force. 1pound = about 4.445 N.
