What is the Formula to convert Dekanewtons to Kilogram-Force?
The formula to convert given force from Dekanewtons to Kilogram-Force is:
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 kilogram-force, i.e., Force(Kilogram-Force).
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 Kilogram-Force.
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 kilogram-force is:
Substitute given weight of lifting a weight by pulley system, Force(Dekanewtons) = 20 in the above formula.
Force(Kilogram-Force) = 20 × 1.0197162129779
Force(Kilogram-Force) = 20.3943
Final Answer:
Therefore, 20 daN is equal to 20.3943 kgf.
The force of lifting a weight by pulley system is 20.3943 kgf, in kilogram-force.
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.
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.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What is the formula for converting Dekanewtons to Kilogram-Force in Force?
The formula to convert Dekanewtons to Kilogram-Force in Force is:
Dekanewtons * 1.0197162129779
2. Is this tool free or paid?
This Force conversion tool, which converts Dekanewtons to Kilogram-Force, is completely free to use.
3. How do I convert Force from Dekanewtons to Kilogram-Force?
To convert Force from Dekanewtons to Kilogram-Force, you can use the following formula:
