What is the Formula to convert Dekanewtons to Giganewtons?
The formula to convert given force from Dekanewtons to Giganewtons is:
Force(Giganewtons) = Force(Dekanewtons) × 1e-8
Substitute the given value of force in dekanewtons, i.e., Force(Dekanewtons) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the force in giganewtons, i.e., Force(Giganewtons).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
Consider a boat that requires a force of 50 dekanewtons to pull across the water. Convert this force from dekanewtons to Giganewtons.
Answer:
Given:
The force of pulling boat across the water in dekanewtons is:
Force(Dekanewtons) = 50
Formula:
The formula to convert force from dekanewtons to giganewtons is:
Force(Giganewtons) = Force(Dekanewtons) × 1e-8
Substitution:
Substitute given weight of pulling boat across the water, Force(Dekanewtons) = 50 in the above formula.
Force(Giganewtons) = 50 × 1e-8
Force(Giganewtons) = 5e-7
Final Answer:
Therefore, 50 daN is equal to 5e-7 GN.
The force of pulling boat across the water is 5e-7 GN, in giganewtons.
2
Consider a pulley system lifting a weight using 20 dekanewtons of force. Convert this force from dekanewtons to Giganewtons.
Answer:
Given:
The force of lifting a weight by pulley system in dekanewtons is:
Force(Dekanewtons) = 20
Formula:
The formula to convert force from dekanewtons to giganewtons is:
Force(Giganewtons) = Force(Dekanewtons) × 1e-8
Substitution:
Substitute given weight of lifting a weight by pulley system, Force(Dekanewtons) = 20 in the above formula.
Force(Giganewtons) = 20 × 1e-8
Force(Giganewtons) = 2e-7
Final Answer:
Therefore, 20 daN is equal to 2e-7 GN.
The force of lifting a weight by pulley system is 2e-7 GN, in giganewtons.
Dekanewtons
A dekanewton (daN) represents 10 newtons of force. It is a convenient unit for representing forces in contexts where newtons are too small, but kilonewtons are too large. Dekanewtons are occasionally used in mechanical and engineering applications.
Giganewtons
A giganewton (GN) is 109 newtons. It’s used to describe extremely large forces, such as the thrust produced by spacecraft or the force involved in geological phenomena like earthquakes. Giganewtons help put into perspective the vast power involved in significant natural or artificial forces.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What is the formula for converting Dekanewtons to Giganewtons in Force?
The formula to convert Dekanewtons to Giganewtons in Force is:
Dekanewtons * 1e-8
2. Is this tool free or paid?
This Force conversion tool, which converts Dekanewtons to Giganewtons, is completely free to use.
3. How do I convert Force from Dekanewtons to Giganewtons?
To convert Force from Dekanewtons to Giganewtons, you can use the following formula:
Dekanewtons * 1e-8
For example, if you have a value in Dekanewtons, you substitute that value in place of Dekanewtons in the above formula, and solve the mathematical expression to get the equivalent value in Giganewtons.
