Examples

1

Consider a system applying 250 pound-foot-per-square-second of force to rotate a wheel.
Convert this force from pound-foot-per-square-second to Kilonewtons.

Answer:

Given:

The force of wheel in pound foot per square second is:

Force(Pound Foot per Square Second) = 250

Formula:

The formula to convert force from pound foot per square second to kilonewtons is:

Force(Kilonewtons) = Force(Pound Foot per Square Second) × 1.382549543759999e-4

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of wheel, Force(Pound Foot per Square Second) = 250 in the above formula.

Force(Kilonewtons) = 250 × 1.382549543759999e-4

Force(Kilonewtons) = 0.03456373859

Final Answer:

Therefore, 250 lbf·ft/s² is equal to 0.03456373859 kN.

The force of wheel is 0.03456373859 kN, in kilonewtons.

2

Consider a pendulum experiencing 100 pound-foot-per-square-second of force as it swings.
Convert this force from pound-foot-per-square-second to Kilonewtons.

Answer:

Given:

The force of pendulum in pound foot per square second is:

Force(Pound Foot per Square Second) = 100

Formula:

The formula to convert force from pound foot per square second to kilonewtons is:

Force(Kilonewtons) = Force(Pound Foot per Square Second) × 1.382549543759999e-4

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of pendulum, Force(Pound Foot per Square Second) = 100 in the above formula.

Force(Kilonewtons) = 100 × 1.382549543759999e-4

Force(Kilonewtons) = 0.01382549544

Final Answer:

Therefore, 100 lbf·ft/s² is equal to 0.01382549544 kN.

The force of pendulum is 0.01382549544 kN, in kilonewtons.

Pound Foot per Square Second

Pound foot per square second is a unit used to describe force in the FPS system. It is sometimes used in older engineering contexts or for specialized calculations.

Kilonewtons

A kilonewton (kN) is equal to 1,000 newtons. It is often used in engineering to express larger forces, such as the load-bearing capacity of materials or the thrust produced by rockets. Kilonewtons make it easier to work with the typically larger forces involved in construction, aerospace, and structural analysis.
