Convert ounce force to newton
Ounce-Force
The ounce-force (ozf) is a unit of force in the US customary and imperial systems, defined as the gravitational force exerted on a mass of one avoirdupois ounce at standard gravity (9.80665 m/sĀ²). It is one-sixteenth of a pound-force and is used in applications requiring fine force measurement such as spring scales and fishing tackle ratings. One ounce-force equals approximately 0.278014 newtons.
Newton
The newton (symbol: N) is the SI unit of force, named after Sir Isaac Newton. One newton is the force needed to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at one metre per second squared (1 N = 1 kgĀ·m/sĀ²). Roughly the weight of a small (100 g) apple under standard gravity, it is the base unit used throughout physics and engineering to express force, weight and thrust.
