US customary units:
lbf, pound of force:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound_(force)
{ standard acceleration due to gravity } = (32.174049 feet) / (seconds ^ 2)
1 lbf = (1 POUND * 32.174049 feet) / (seconds ^ 2)
conversion:
1 pound of force = 4.448222 Newtons
(1 pound * 32.174049 feet) / (seconds ^ 2) = (.45 kilograms * 9.80665 meters) / (seconds ^ 2)
poundal:
poundal = (1 pound * 1 foot) / (seconds ^ 2)

System International:
Newtons:
1 Newton = (1 Kilogram * Meters) / (seconds ^ 2)
examples:
(50 kg) * (9.90665 meters / seconds ** 2) ~= 495.3325 Newton
