(N/A) $1$. The $SI$ unit of force is the newton $(N)$. One newton is defined as the force that,when applied to a body of mass $1 \ kg$,produces an acceleration of $1 \ m/s^2$ in the direction of the force. Mathematically,$1 \ N = 1 \ kg \cdot m/s^2$.
$2$. The $CGS$ unit of force is the dyne. One dyne is defined as the force that,when applied to a body of mass $1 \ g$,produces an acceleration of $1 \ cm/s^2$ in the direction of the force. Mathematically,$1 \ dyne = 1 \ g \cdot cm/s^2$.

The new $SI$ unit of mass $1 \, kg$ is defined in terms of the difference in the masses of two ${}^{133}Cs_{55}$ atoms. One of these atoms is in its ground state and the other is in an excited state that has a frequency of excitation close to $9.2 \times 10^9 \, Hz$. The number of atoms required to get $1 \, kg$ of mass this way is of the order of (Planck's constant = $6.63 \times 10^{-34} \, J \cdot s$; mass of proton = $1.67 \times 10^{-27} \, kg$; Avogadro number = $6.02 \times 10^{23} \, \text{particles}$; speed of light = $3 \times 10^8 \, m/s$).
