Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider a large rocket engine producing a thrust of 100 giganewtons.
Convert this thrust from giganewtons to Poundals.

Answer:

Given:

The force of rocket engine in giganewtons is:

Force(Giganewtons) = 100

Formula:

The formula to convert force from giganewtons to poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = Force(Giganewtons) × 7.2330138512099e+9

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of rocket engine, Force(Giganewtons) = 100 in the above formula.

Force(Poundals) = 100 × 7.2330138512099e+9

Force(Poundals) = 723301385120.99

Final Answer:

Therefore, 100 GN is equal to 723301385120.99 pdl.

The force of rocket engine is 723301385120.99 pdl, in poundals.

2

Consider a superstructure experiencing 50 giganewtons of force.
Convert this force from giganewtons to Poundals.

Answer:

Given:

The force of superstructure in giganewtons is:

Force(Giganewtons) = 50

Formula:

The formula to convert force from giganewtons to poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = Force(Giganewtons) × 7.2330138512099e+9

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of superstructure, Force(Giganewtons) = 50 in the above formula.

Force(Poundals) = 50 × 7.2330138512099e+9

Force(Poundals) = 361650692560.495

Final Answer:

Therefore, 50 GN is equal to 361650692560.495 pdl.

The force of superstructure is 361650692560.495 pdl, in poundals.

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.

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.
