The strength of a force is usually expressed by its ________.
Magnitude
Force is a vector quantity having both magnitude and direction. The magnitude is the numerical measure of how strong the force is (expressed in newtons), while direction tells where it acts.
Motion is the effect of a force; interaction is its origin; direction specifies orientation — none of these quantify strength. Hence the strength of a force is expressed by its magnitude.
