ForceMeasure
subject			fact

ForceMeasure	is a kind of FunctionQuantity
FunctionQuantity	documentation A FunctionQuantity is a Function that maps from one or more instances of ConstantQuantity to another instance of ConstantQuantity. For example, the velocity of a particle would be represented by a FunctionQuantity mapping values of time (which are ConstantQuantities) to values of distance (also ConstantQuantities). Note that all instances of FunctionQuantity are Functions with a fixed arity. Note too that all elements of the range of a FunctionQuantity have the same physical dimension as the FunctionQuantity itself

Kinds of ForceMeasure :

• Newton (4 facts) - SI ForceMeasure. Symbol: N. It is that force which gives to a mass of 1 Kilogram an acceleration of 1 Meter per SecondDuration. Newton = m*kg*s^(-2)
• PoundForce (4 facts) - English pound of force. The conversion factor depends on the local value of the acceleration of free fall. A mean value is used in the conversion axiom associated with this constant
