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:
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.
