What is the Formula to convert Petanewtons to Centinewtons?

The formula to convert given force from Petanewtons to Centinewtons is:

Force(Centinewtons) = Force(Petanewtons) × 1e+17

Substitute the given value of force in petanewtons, i.e., Force(Petanewtons) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the force in centinewtons, i.e., Force(Centinewtons).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

Consider a planet exerting a force of 10 petanewtons on its moon.
Convert this force from petanewtons to Centinewtons.

Answer:

Given:

The force of planet in petanewtons is:

Force(Petanewtons) = 10

Formula:

The formula to convert force from petanewtons to centinewtons is:

Force(Centinewtons) = Force(Petanewtons) × 1e+17

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of planet, Force(Petanewtons) = 10 in the above formula.

Force(Centinewtons) = 10 × 1e+17

Force(Centinewtons) = 1000000000000000000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 10 PT is equal to 1000000000000000000 cN.

The force of planet is 1000000000000000000 cN, in centinewtons.

2

Consider the energy needed for interstellar travel requiring a force of 0.8 petanewtons.
Convert this force from petanewtons to Centinewtons.

Answer:

Given:

The force of interstellar vehicle required in petanewtons is:

Force(Petanewtons) = 0.8

Formula:

The formula to convert force from petanewtons to centinewtons is:

Force(Centinewtons) = Force(Petanewtons) × 1e+17

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of interstellar vehicle required, Force(Petanewtons) = 0.8 in the above formula.

Force(Centinewtons) = 0.8 × 1e+17

Force(Centinewtons) = 80000000000000000

Final Answer:

Therefore, 0.8 PT is equal to 80000000000000000 cN.

The force of interstellar vehicle required is 80000000000000000 cN, in centinewtons.

Petanewtons

A petanewton (PT) is equal to 1015 newtons. It’s an extremely large unit of force, mostly theoretical, used in astrophysics or high-energy physics to describe forces acting at a massive scale, such as between planets or in star formation.

Centinewtons

A centinewton (cN) is 0.01 newtons, making it useful for expressing very small forces. It might be used in situations involving micro-robotics or precision instruments where delicate forces are applied.
