Examples

1

Consider a scale applying 200 centinewtons of force to measure weight.
Convert this force from centinewtons to Poundals.

Answer:

Given:

The force of scale in centinewtons is:

Force(Centinewtons) = 200

Formula:

The formula to convert force from centinewtons to poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = Force(Centinewtons) × 0.072330138512099

Substitution:

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

Force(Poundals) = 200 × 0.072330138512099

Force(Poundals) = 14.466

Final Answer:

Therefore, 200 cN is equal to 14.466 pdl.

The force of scale is 14.466 pdl, in poundals.

2

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

Answer:

Given:

The force of object in centinewtons is:

Force(Centinewtons) = 50

Formula:

The formula to convert force from centinewtons to poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = Force(Centinewtons) × 0.072330138512099

Substitution:

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

Force(Poundals) = 50 × 0.072330138512099

Force(Poundals) = 3.6165

Final Answer:

Therefore, 50 cN is equal to 3.6165 pdl.

The force of object is 3.6165 pdl, in poundals.

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.

Poundals

A poundal (pdl) is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, equal to about 0.138 newtons. It is used in some engineering and physics applications to measure force in non-SI units.
