What is the Formula to convert Kiloponds to Giganewtons?

The formula to convert given force from Kiloponds to Giganewtons is:

Force(Giganewtons) = Force(Kiloponds) × 9.806650000000272e-9

Substitute the given value of force in kiloponds, i.e., Force(Kiloponds) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the force in giganewtons, i.e., Force(Giganewtons).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider a vehicle that exerts 10 kiloponds of force as it moves over uneven terrain.
Convert this force from kilopond to Giganewtons.

Answer:

Given:

The force of vehicle in kiloponds is:

Force(Kiloponds) = 10

Formula:

The formula to convert force from kiloponds to giganewtons is:

Force(Giganewtons) = Force(Kiloponds) × 9.806650000000272e-9

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of vehicle, Force(Kiloponds) = 10 in the above formula.

Force(Giganewtons) = 10 × 9.806650000000272e-9

Force(Giganewtons) = 9.807e-8

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 kp is equal to 9.807e-8 GN.

The force of vehicle is 9.807e-8 GN, in giganewtons.

2

Consider a person lifting a heavy object with 2 kiloponds of force.
Convert this force from kilopond to Giganewtons.

Answer:

Given:

The force of heavy object in kiloponds is:

Force(Kiloponds) = 2

Formula:

The formula to convert force from kiloponds to giganewtons is:

Force(Giganewtons) = Force(Kiloponds) × 9.806650000000272e-9

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of heavy object, Force(Kiloponds) = 2 in the above formula.

Force(Giganewtons) = 2 × 9.806650000000272e-9

Force(Giganewtons) = 1.961e-8

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2 kp is equal to 1.961e-8 GN.

The force of heavy object is 1.961e-8 GN, in giganewtons.

Kiloponds

A kilopond (kp) is equivalent to kilogram-force. It was previously used to measure forces exerted by larger masses, but it has been replaced by more standardized units like the newton.

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.
