Examples
1
Consider a bridge designed to withstand a force of 20 meganewtons. Convert this force from meganewtons to Giganewtons.
Answer:
Given:
The force in meganewtons is:
Force(Meganewtons) = 20
Formula:
The formula to convert force from meganewtons to giganewtons is:
Force(Giganewtons) = Force(Meganewtons) × 0.001
Substitution:
Substitute given weight Force(Meganewtons) = 20 in the above formula.
Force(Giganewtons) = 20 × 0.001
Force(Giganewtons) = 0.02
Final Answer:
Therefore, 20 MN is equal to 0.02 GN.
The force is 0.02 GN, in giganewtons.
2
Consider a strong earthquake generating a force of 15 meganewtons on buildings. Convert this force from meganewtons to Giganewtons.
Answer:
Given:
The force of earthquake generating on buildings in meganewtons is:
Force(Meganewtons) = 15
Formula:
The formula to convert force from meganewtons to giganewtons is:
Force(Giganewtons) = Force(Meganewtons) × 0.001
Substitution:
Substitute given weight of earthquake generating on buildings, Force(Meganewtons) = 15 in the above formula.
Force(Giganewtons) = 15 × 0.001
Force(Giganewtons) = 0.015
Final Answer:
Therefore, 15 MN is equal to 0.015 GN.
The force of earthquake generating on buildings is 0.015 GN, in giganewtons.
Meganewtons
A meganewton (MN) is 106 newtons. It’s commonly used in fields like aerospace engineering to describe the force exerted by rockets or the loads in large structures. Meganeutons are an appropriate unit for expressing massive forces that exceed the capacity of kilonewtons.
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.
