Definition:

The newton is a unit of force, defined as the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared.

History/Origin:

The newton was named after Sir Isaac Newton, the English physicist and mathematician who developed the laws of motion and the law of universal gravitation.

Current use:

The newton is commonly used to express the force of gravity on Earth and to measure the weight of objects. It is also used in engineering and physics to describe forces acting on structures and systems.
