Examples
1
Consider a planet exerting a force of 10 petanewtons on its moon. Convert this force from petanewtons to Meganewtons.
Answer:
Given:
The force of planet in petanewtons is:
Force(Petanewtons) = 10
Formula:
The formula to convert force from petanewtons to meganewtons is:
Force(Meganewtons) = Force(Petanewtons) × 1e+9
Substitution:
Substitute given weight of planet, Force(Petanewtons) = 10 in the above formula.
Force(Meganewtons) = 10 × 1e+9
Force(Meganewtons) = 10000000000
Final Answer:
Therefore, 10 PT is equal to 10000000000 MN.
The force of planet is 10000000000 MN, in meganewtons.
2
Consider the energy needed for interstellar travel requiring a force of 0.8 petanewtons. Convert this force from petanewtons to Meganewtons.
Answer:
Given:
The force of interstellar vehicle required in petanewtons is:
Force(Petanewtons) = 0.8
Formula:
The formula to convert force from petanewtons to meganewtons is:
Force(Meganewtons) = Force(Petanewtons) × 1e+9
Substitution:
Substitute given weight of interstellar vehicle required, Force(Petanewtons) = 0.8 in the above formula.
Force(Meganewtons) = 0.8 × 1e+9
Force(Meganewtons) = 800000000
Final Answer:
Therefore, 0.8 PT is equal to 800000000 MN.
The force of interstellar vehicle required is 800000000 MN, in meganewtons.
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.
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.
