Hi @Aphmau ! Welcome to QuestionCove!

Give me a minute to work out your problem :)

ok

Angle · Answer

I do believe there is a unit breakdown for Newtons
$1N = 1~kg~\times\large\frac{m}{s^2}$

Angle · Answer

we can replace the "1" idea with that one side of the equation should equal the other side

it's like solving for missing variables:
$2.4 N = (0.94kg)\times(x ~\large\frac{m}{s^2})$
=
2.4 = 0.94 x

solve for x
