Answer:

The fundamental unit of force is kg.m/s²

Step-by-step explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, force is given as the product of mass and acceleration.

Mathematically, force can be expressed as; F = ma

where;

F is the force

M is mass of the object, unit of mass = kg

a is acceleration of the object, unit of acceleration = m/s²

Force = kg x m/s²

Force = kg.m/s² = Newton [N]

Therefore, the fundamental unit of force is kg.m/s²
