Pound Foot per Square Second
Pound foot per square second is a unit used to describe force in the FPS system. It is sometimes used in older engineering contexts or for specialized calculations.
Newtons
A newton is the standard unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is named after Sir Isaac Newton in honor of his work in physics, particularly his second law of motion. One newton is the amount of force needed to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by one meter per second squared. Newtons are widely used to measure forces in engineering, mechanics, and daily life, such as the force you exert when pushing a door.
