Greetings,
Letting the unit do the talking, speed (m/s) times weight (N) gives
(N.m/s) which is (J/s) which is a (watt). Is that not a SI unit?

Hi all,
The new advertisement on the radio for wearing seat belts uses
Stopping Power.
Stopping Power = Speed X Weight .... It's simple physics!
I think this should be added to the set of new SI units.
