Why would one not use pounds to measure a force?



So what's the difference? Why would one not better use the universal
joules of energy to represent whatever pounds or kg worth of force(Kgf)?


If you don't know the difference between energy and force, perhaps you
should lurk. I suspect that Mark will have a better response. At
