  1. 320 pound = 1 423.430 921 Newton


  2. A Newton is a person's mass times acceleration due to gravity. Its expanded unit is (kg*m)s^2.

    First, convert 320 lbs to kg.

    1 pound =  0.45359237 kg

    320*.45359237 = 145.149558 kg

    On Earth, acceleration due to gravity (g) is 9.8 m/s^2

    145.149*9.8 = 1422.46 N

  3. 1 pound is 4 newtons

    so

    1280 newtons
