Weight is a force, and according to the International System of Units (SI), the unit for force is the newton. This is derived from Newton's second law \(F = ma\) (force equals mass times acceleration). The SI unit of mass is the kilogram (\(kg\)) and the SI unit of acceleration is meters per second squared (\(m/s^{2}\)). When we multiply \(kg\times m/s^{2}\), we get the unit for force, which is named the newton (\(N\)) in honor of Sir Isaac Newton.
