   Terms in this set (14) Force (w/ units) Measured in Newton's, or (N), It is a push or pull on an object with mass, causing it to change in velocity, (to accelerate). It is a vector, therefore it does have direction involved. balanced forces. Equal forces acting on an object in opposite directions. unbalanced forces.

   As previously discussed, force is a vector; it has both magnitude and direction. The SI unit of force is called the newton (abbreviated N), and 1 N is the force needed to accelerate an object with a mass of 1 kg at a rate of 1 m/s 2: 1 N = 1 kg • m/s 2. An easy way to remember the size of a newton is to imagine holding a small apple; it has a ...

   What units are used to convert a force to energy?

   • Units are joules, newtons and metres. If the force is overcoming frictional forces, all or some of the work done by the force is converted to heat energy. The work done by the force may also be converted to kinetic energy or potential energy of the object. When work is converted to different forms of energy you can:

   How is force represented in physics?

   • Force can be represented by vectors or expressed as a multiple of a standard force. The push or pull on an object can vary considerably in either magnitude or direction. For example, a cannon exerts a strong force on a cannonball that is launched into the air. In contrast, Earth exerts only a tiny downward pull on a flea.

   How do you calculate the work done by a force?

   • The work done, E w by a force, F moving through a distance, d is given by: \ ( {E_w} = Fd\) Units are joules, newtons and metres. If the force is overcoming frictional forces, all or some of the work done by the force is converted to heat energy. The work done by the force may also be converted to kinetic energy or potential energy of the object.

   Imperial units. 0.224809 lbf. The newton (symbol: N) is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as , the force which gives a mass of 1 kilogram an acceleration of 1 metre per second squared. It is named after Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on classical mechanics, specifically his second law of motion.
