What is the Formula to convert Kilonewtons to Poundals?
The formula to convert given force from Kilonewtons to Poundals is:
Substitute the given value of force in kilonewtons, i.e., Force(Kilonewtons) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the force in poundals, i.e., Force(Poundals).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
Consider a crane exerting a force of 2 kilonewtons to lift a heavy load. Convert this force from kilonewtons to Poundals.
Answer:
Given:
The force of crane lifting a load in kilonewtons is:
Force(Kilonewtons) = 2
Formula:
The formula to convert force from kilonewtons to poundals is:
Substitute given weight of elevator, Force(Kilonewtons) = 5 in the above formula.
Force(Poundals) = 5 × 7.2330138512099e+3
Force(Poundals) = 36165.0693
Final Answer:
Therefore, 5 kN is equal to 36165.0693 pdl.
The force of elevator is 36165.0693 pdl, in poundals.
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.
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.
