Purpose

The Force Conversions category is designed for those analyzing or applying force—whether in mechanics, structural engineering, or physics education—offering tools to switch between metric, imperial, and historical units seamlessly.

History

Force units reflect scientific evolution: newtons honor isaac newton’s 17th-century laws, kilogram-force emerged in engineering for practical weight, dynes were part of the 19th-century CGS system, and poundals arose in the british imperial system for dynamic calculations. This category unites these standards.
