Two x-axis for the same plot line

I have a plot of power as a function of a force P(F) with the power P on the y-axis and the force F on the x-axis.
As acceleration is kept constant, is there a way to add another x-axis on top of the plot representing the mass m knowing that F=m·a?
It would be like copying the x-axis multiplied by the value of the constant acceleration as two ways of interpreting the data P(F) and P(m).
It would be like having two units in two different x-axis for the same data.
Thank you!

I know there is a method to add a second y axis, but a second x would be new to me. Why not just add the second unit in the text of the xticklabels?

If you have R2014b or later, just like utilizing both sides of the y axis, you can also use top and bottom side of x axis.

FYI: This method only works with 'line' function. It doesn't work with 'plot'.
