Normalizing Data to a weight

I have a set of data that has points in Fx and Fy, both are in terms of Newtons and I have to normalize both to the weight of a 60kg person. How would I do this in MATLAB?

I uploaded a 1444 by 2 data set titled 'data' and here are my previous commands: Fx = data(:,1); Fy = data(:,2)

Well, a kilogram is a unit of mass, not weight, and the Newton is a unit of force ( 1 kg·m/s² ), so assuming gravitational acceleration is 9.81 kg·m/s², either divide your Newton measurements by that to get mass in kilograms, or multiply your 60 kg people by that to get the force they generate in Newtons. Then divide your data by 60 kg or 60*9.81=588.6 Newtons to get the normalised values.
