Understanding Newton to Ounce-Force Conversion
What is a Newton (N)?
A Newton is the SI unit of force, defined as the force needed to accelerate one kilogram of mass at a rate of one meter per second squared. It's named after physicist Sir Isaac Newton and is fundamental in physics and engineering.
What is an Ounce-Force (ozf)?
An ounce-force is a unit of force in the imperial and US customary systems. It equals the force exerted by Earth's gravity on an object with a mass of one ounce at standard gravity (approximately 32.174 ft/s²).
