Struct measurements::force::Force

pub struct Force { /* fields omitted */ }

The Force struct can be used to deal with force in a common way.

#Example

use measurements::Force;
use measurements::Mass;
use measurements::Acceleration;

let metric_ton = Mass::from_metric_tons(1.0);
let gravity = Acceleration::from_meters_per_second_per_second(9.81);
let force: Force = metric_ton * gravity; // F=ma
println!(
    "One metric ton exerts a force of {} due to gravity",
    force);
