Newton

The video tutorial introduces the concept of Newtons as a unit of force measurement. It explains how forces like gravity and wind affect the movement of objects. The tutorial provides examples of how different amounts of force, measured in Newtons, are required for various tasks such as throwing a football or launching a rocket. A Newton is defined as the force needed to move a 1 kg object over a distance of one meter. The video also highlights Isaac Newton's contributions to the understanding of movement and forces. Finally, viewers are encouraged to reflect on how changes in force can impact the movement of objects.
