How do i convert newtons to pounds?

Question

For example, a 1 kilogram object traveling at 10 meters per second will generate 10 newtons, but how would translate into pounds? You always hear things like thing in accidents and they say (not to this particular problem) that when they hit the wall their body's generated 1000lbs of force. How did they determine that (i am assuming with g-forces, but i don't know how to calculate that either)?

Answer 1

A newton is equal to one kilogram mass times acceleration.
To convert a force in newton to the British unit pound force.
You Need to know what was the measured aceleration when the mass in kilograms was weighted.
I kilogram mass on the surface of the earth weights 9.81 Newton . 9.81 is the gravity field on the surface of the earth expressed in the MKS system.
Convert kilograms to pounds and then multiply it by 32 =Pound force.
32 is the gravity field expressed as acceleration in the English system.

Answer 2

1 newton = 0.224808943 pounds

Answer 3

newtons*0.046246 = pounds
