Examples

1

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

Answer:

Given:

The force of vehicle in kiloponds is:

Force(Kiloponds) = 10

Formula:

The formula to convert force from kiloponds to poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = Force(Kiloponds) × 70.93163528396953

Substitution:

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

Force(Poundals) = 10 × 70.93163528396953

Force(Poundals) = 709.3164

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 kp is equal to 709.3164 pdl.

The force of vehicle is 709.3164 pdl, in poundals.

2

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

Answer:

Given:

The force of heavy object in kiloponds is:

Force(Kiloponds) = 2

Formula:

The formula to convert force from kiloponds to poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = Force(Kiloponds) × 70.93163528396953

Substitution:

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

Force(Poundals) = 2 × 70.93163528396953

Force(Poundals) = 141.8633

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2 kp is equal to 141.8633 pdl.

The force of heavy object is 141.8633 pdl, in poundals.

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 It was previously used to measure forces exerted by larger masses, but it has been replaced by more standardized units like the newton.

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.
