Examples

1

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

Answer:

Given:

The force of vehicle in kiloponds is:

Force(Kiloponds) = 10

Formula:

The formula to convert force from kiloponds to pound-force is:

Force(Pound-Force) = Force(Kiloponds) × 2.204622621851676

Substitution:

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

Force(Pound-Force) = 10 × 2.204622621851676

Force(Pound-Force) = 22.0462

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 kp is equal to 22.0462 lbf.

The force of vehicle is 22.0462 lbf, in pound-force.

2

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

Answer:

Given:

The force of heavy object in kiloponds is:

Force(Kiloponds) = 2

Formula:

The formula to convert force from kiloponds to pound-force is:

Force(Pound-Force) = Force(Kiloponds) × 2.204622621851676

Substitution:

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

Force(Pound-Force) = 2 × 2.204622621851676

Force(Pound-Force) = 4.4092

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2 kp is equal to 4.4092 lbf.

The force of heavy object is 4.4092 lbf, in pound-force.

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 It was previously used to measure forces exerted by larger masses, but it has been replaced by more standardized units like the newton.

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.
