Step-by-step explanation:
To convert 1 pounds to its meteric unit in weight, we need to first convert it to kilogram. Using the conversion 1pound = 0.453592 kg
Since Weight of a substance = mass of the substance * acceleration due to gravity
W = mg
Given mass = 0.453592kg and g = 9.8m/s²
Weight = 4.4452016 Newtons
1 pounds is therefore closest to 4.5 units metric of weight
