How many Newtons (force) would there be per 1 kg of mass?

Best Answers

1 Newton is the force that one kilogram would exert if it were accelerated with 1 meter per second/ second. On earth, an apple exerts about 1 Newton of force downwards due to the ~9.81 m/s squared acceleration the earth provides. So one kilogram would exert about 9.81 Newtons of force downwards on earth, but on the moon this would be way less. read more

The deprecated unit kilogram-force (kgf) or kilopond (kp) is the force exerted by one kilogram of mass in standard Earth gravity (defined as exactly 9.80665 m/s²). One kilogram-force is equal to exactly 9.80665 newtons. read more
