Gravitational unit force:
1. A body of unit mass is said to experience gravitational unit force, which is essentially the force that 1kg, by the gravitation due to Earth.
2. The kilogram-force i.e Kgf is known as the gravitational unit of force.
3. Hence, the force exerted by the earth on a body of mass of 1kg is regarded as 1Kgf.
4. Also, we know,
Force = mass × acceleration F=m × g F = 1 × 9 .8 kgm / s 2 F = 9 .8 N

5. This refers that one unit of Kgf is equivalent to 9.8N Force.
Hence, the gravitational unit of force is Kgf.
