In physics, force is that
which, when applied to an object of mass, tends to set that object in motion by causing an acceleration. Force is
mathematically equal to the time rate of change of the momentum of the mass on which it acts. This is commonly
referred to as Newton's Second Law of Motion, where F = m * a.
Standard units = Newton (N) for metric, Pound (lb) for English
