What is the Formula to convert Centinewtons to Kilogram-Force?

The formula to convert given force from Centinewtons to Kilogram-Force is:

Force(Kilogram-Force) = Force(Centinewtons) × 0.0010197162129779

Substitute the given value of force in centinewtons, i.e., Force(Centinewtons) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the force in kilogram-force, i.e., Force(Kilogram-Force).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider a scale applying 200 centinewtons of force to measure weight.
Convert this force from centinewtons to Kilogram-Force.

Answer:

Given:

The force of scale in centinewtons is:

Force(Centinewtons) = 200

Formula:

The formula to convert force from centinewtons to kilogram-force is:

Force(Kilogram-Force) = Force(Centinewtons) × 0.0010197162129779

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of scale, Force(Centinewtons) = 200 in the above formula.

Force(Kilogram-Force) = 200 × 0.0010197162129779

Force(Kilogram-Force) = 0.2039

Final Answer:

Therefore, 200 cN is equal to 0.2039 kgf.

The force of scale is 0.2039 kgf, in kilogram-force.

2

Consider a small object that applies 50 centinewtons of downward force.
Convert this force from centinewtons to Kilogram-Force.

Answer:

Given:

The force of object in centinewtons is:

Force(Centinewtons) = 50

Formula:

The formula to convert force from centinewtons to kilogram-force is:

Force(Kilogram-Force) = Force(Centinewtons) × 0.0010197162129779

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of object, Force(Centinewtons) = 50 in the above formula.

Force(Kilogram-Force) = 50 × 0.0010197162129779

Force(Kilogram-Force) = 0.05098581065

Final Answer:

Therefore, 50 cN is equal to 0.05098581065 kgf.

The force of object is 0.05098581065 kgf, in kilogram-force.

Centinewtons

A centinewton (cN) is 0.01 newtons, making it useful for expressing very small forces. It might be used in situations involving micro-robotics or precision instruments where delicate forces are applied.

Kilogram-Force

Kilogram-force (kgf) is the force exerted by the weight of one kilogram under standard gravity. It is often used in engineering to describe the force of everyday objects and loads, such as the force exerted by a heavy tool or piece of equipment. It is a non-SI unit but still finds practical use in many fields.
