Force Calculator
Force is something that is constantly being applied on essentially every object and thing here on Earth. Use this tool to calculate the amount of force something gives off.

Force is a pillar in the way the world we live in works. It is something that is very important and can be calculated with the following variables:
The result you get from this tool is the amount of force an object of thing will have based on your entries. This value by default is displayed in newtons. If you get a force of 350 newtons for example. This means that 350 newtons of force are applied to either push or pull an object or thing that you are looking into.
Finding out how much force an object in motion requires to go at the rate it is going is easy with our tool. The steps required to use our tool include:
Let's say you want to find out how much force a large object has when it is moving. It weighs 2,100 pounds and is accelerating at a rate of 60 feet per second squared. We will need to enter the mass first so we enter 2,100 into the first field, but we must change the unit of measurement from kilograms to pounds. Now we have to enter the acceleration which is 60, so we will also need to change the unit to feet per second squared.
We will now be able to hit calculate and find the force. We get a value of 17,420.11 newtons. We can change the unit of measurement to another one if we select the dropdown list and choose one of those.
Yes, inertia is a form of a force. It is vital to how the world we know works and essentially holds the universe together.
Yes, gravity is a type of force. Even though we cannot see it, it constantly pulls down on objects towards the Earth.
Friction is a type of force, it is the force that resists motion when the surface of one object comes in contact with the surface of another object.
Momentum is not necessarily a force itself, it more so describes the intensity of a force.
The value of force will always be positive, so no, force will not be negative ever. There are technical scenarios where force is essentially negative, but it still will be represented with a positive value.
