... The standard SI unit for force is kg m/s2 , which is given the name Newton (N). In this lab it will be more convenient to make measurements in grams (g) and centimeters (cm) so you will be using the cgs system of units instead. Note: In the cgs system of units, the unit for force is the dyne: 1 dyne ...
