What is the Formula to convert Kip-Force to Giganewtons?
The formula to convert given force from Kip-Force to Giganewtons is:
Substitute the given value of force in kip-force, i.e., Force(Kip-Force) 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 construction beam withstanding a force of 4 kip-force. Convert this force from kip-force to Giganewtons.
Answer:
Given:
The force of construction beam in kip-force is:
Force(Kip-Force) = 4
Formula:
The formula to convert force from kip-force to giganewtons is:
Substitute given weight of bridge, Force(Kip-Force) = 10 in the above formula.
Force(Giganewtons) = 10 × 4.448221615254772e-6
Force(Giganewtons) = 0.00004448222
Final Answer:
Therefore, 10 kipf is equal to 0.00004448222 GN.
The force of bridge is 0.00004448222 GN, in giganewtons.
Kip-Force
A kip-force (kipf) is equal to 1,000 pounds-force. It is commonly used in structural engineering in the United States to describe the load-carrying capacity of structures and components.
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.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
