So as to not pick on just Newton's laws _of_motion_, my colleague
would suggest that the k in kma is analogous to the G in Newton's law
of gravity. A former engineering student of his recently e-mailed
back agreeing with the kma and had included a scan from an
engineering textbook where the k appears in the 2nd law. Is anyone
else aware if this is a common practice in engineering? I'd never
heard of it in my physics education.
