hi everyone..
i have an inquiry about the unit of mass for respective input units of force and length, that is;
#Units: kN, m, sec
#Units: N, m, sec
#Units: N, mm, sec
for each case, is there an appropriate unit (kg, Ton, gm) for the mass? or is it just 'kg' all throughout for SI units?
tnx.

i tried using 'kg' unit for mass for each case;
a) #Units: kN, m,s
b) #Units: N, m, s
c) #Units: N, mm, s
...but got variable results. there must be an appropriate unit for mass in each case.
