Examples

1

Consider a biological cell experiencing 200 piconewtons of force.
Convert this force from piconewtons to Kilogram-Force.

Answer:

Given:

The force of biological cell in piconewtons is:

Force(Piconewtons) = 200

Formula:

The formula to convert force from piconewtons to kilogram-force is:

Force(Kilogram-Force) = Force(Piconewtons) × 1.0197162129778999e-13

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of biological cell, Force(Piconewtons) = 200 in the above formula.

Force(Kilogram-Force) = 200 × 1.0197162129778999e-13

Force(Kilogram-Force) = 2e-11

Final Answer:

Therefore, 200 pN is equal to 2e-11 kgf.

The force of biological cell is 2e-11 kgf, in kilogram-force.

2

Consider a microscopic device applying 150 piconewtons of force.
Convert this force from piconewtons to Kilogram-Force.

Answer:

Given:

The force of microscopic device in piconewtons is:

Force(Piconewtons) = 150

Formula:

The formula to convert force from piconewtons to kilogram-force is:

Force(Kilogram-Force) = Force(Piconewtons) × 1.0197162129778999e-13

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of microscopic device, Force(Piconewtons) = 150 in the above formula.

Force(Kilogram-Force) = 150 × 1.0197162129778999e-13

Force(Kilogram-Force) = 2e-11

Final Answer:

Therefore, 150 pN is equal to 2e-11 kgf.

The force of microscopic device is 2e-11 kgf, in kilogram-force.

Piconewtons

A piconewton (pN) is one-trillionth of a newton. It’s often used in biophysics to measure forces within cells or the binding strength between molecules, providing a unit that’s suitable for describing the tiny interactions within biological systems.

Kilogram-Force

Kilogram-force (kgf) is the force exerted by the weight of one kilogram under standard gravity. It is often used in engineering to describe the force of everyday objects and loads, such as the force exerted by a heavy tool or piece of equipment. It is a non-SI unit but still finds practical use in many fields.
