Force: #f=(kgm)/s^2#
Pressure: #N/(m^2)#
Density: #d=(kg)/(m^3)#

Explanation:

Force is mass times acceleration, so:
#f=ma# #m# is mass in kilograms and #a# is acceleration in meters per second squared.
#f=(kg)(m)/(s^2)#
#f=(kgm)/s^2#

Pressure is measured in force over surface area, or #N/(m^2)#

Density is measured in units of mass over volume, so:
#d=m/V# #m# is mass in kilograms and #V# is volume in terms of meters cubed.
#d=(kg)/(m^3)#
