What is the Formula to convert Kilogram-Force to Pound-Force?
The formula to convert given force from Kilogram-Force to Pound-Force is:
Substitute the given value of force in kilogram-force, i.e., Force(Kilogram-Force) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the force in pound-force, i.e., Force(Pound-Force).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
Consider a person applying 70 kilogram-force to lift a weight in the gym. Convert this force from kilogram-force to Pound-Force.
Answer:
Given:
The force of lifting the weight in kilogram-force is:
Force(Kilogram-Force) = 70
Formula:
The formula to convert force from kilogram-force to pound-force is:
Substitute given weight of shopping bag, Force(Kilogram-Force) = 5 in the above formula.
Force(Pound-Force) = 5 × 2.204622621851676
Force(Pound-Force) = 11.0231
Final Answer:
Therefore, 5 kgf is equal to 11.0231 lbf.
The force of shopping bag is 11.0231 lbf, in pound-force.
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.
Pound-Force
Pound-force (lbf) is the force exerted by gravity on a one-pound mass. It is a commonly used unit in the United States to describe everyday forces, such as the force exerted by objects or people.
