Examples
1
Consider a large rocket engine producing a thrust of 100 giganewtons. Convert this thrust from giganewtons to Kilonewtons.
Answer:
Given:
The force of rocket engine in giganewtons is:
Force(Giganewtons) = 100
Formula:
The formula to convert force from giganewtons to kilonewtons is:
Force(Kilonewtons) = Force(Giganewtons) × 1e+6
Substitution:
Substitute given weight of rocket engine, Force(Giganewtons) = 100 in the above formula.
Force(Kilonewtons) = 100 × 1e+6
Force(Kilonewtons) = 100000000
Final Answer:
Therefore, 100 GN is equal to 100000000 kN.
The force of rocket engine is 100000000 kN, in kilonewtons.
2
Consider a superstructure experiencing 50 giganewtons of force. Convert this force from giganewtons to Kilonewtons.
Answer:
Given:
The force of superstructure in giganewtons is:
Force(Giganewtons) = 50
Formula:
The formula to convert force from giganewtons to kilonewtons is:
Force(Kilonewtons) = Force(Giganewtons) × 1e+6
Substitution:
Substitute given weight of superstructure, Force(Giganewtons) = 50 in the above formula.
Force(Kilonewtons) = 50 × 1e+6
Force(Kilonewtons) = 50000000
Final Answer:
Therefore, 50 GN is equal to 50000000 kN.
The force of superstructure is 50000000 kN, in kilonewtons.
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.
Kilonewtons
A kilonewton (kN) is equal to 1,000 newtons. It is often used in engineering to express larger forces, such as the load-bearing capacity of materials or the thrust produced by rockets. Kilonewtons make it easier to work with the typically larger forces involved in construction, aerospace, and structural analysis.
