Physics SI Unit Help?

Question

I need help answering this question:

Fundemental Units
The basic SI unit for force is the (newton) approximately _____.

i filled in newton and i think that's right i just don't know what approximately is supposed to mean @___@;;.

Answer 1

sorry, it means nothing to me. Newtons is correct.



perhaps it means (10 times the mass) but that is only for one type of force.

Answer 2

Use dimensional prognosis: F = GMm/(r^2) without G, you've gotten Newtons on the left, and kg^2/m^2 on the spectacular. So then, what want be the size of G to make this equation dimensionally consistent? you are able to cut back Newtons to SI instruments making use of F = ma

Answer 3

F is only in Newton, if we are to say 10Kg, we have derail because g is a derived unit and it will be written as 10KgM/s squared
