Examples
1
Consider a person applying 70 kilogram-force to lift a weight in the gym. Convert this force from kilogram-force to Poundals.
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 poundals is:
Substitute given weight of shopping bag, Force(Kilogram-Force) = 5 in the above formula.
Force(Poundals) = 5 × 70.93163528396953
Force(Poundals) = 354.6582
Final Answer:
Therefore, 5 kgf is equal to 354.6582 pdl.
The force of shopping bag is 354.6582 pdl, in poundals.
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.
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.
