What is the Formula to convert Pound-Force to Kip-Force?
The formula to convert given force from Pound-Force to Kip-Force is:
Force(Kip-Force) = Force(Pound-Force) × 0.001
Substitute the given value of force in pound-force, i.e., Force(Pound-Force) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the force in kip-force, i.e., Force(Kip-Force).
Calculation
Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.
Examples
1
Consider a person pushing a door with a force of 50 pound-force. Convert this force from pound-force to Kip-Force.
Answer:
Given:
The force of door in pound-force is:
Force(Pound-Force) = 50
Formula:
The formula to convert force from pound-force to kip-force is:
Force(Kip-Force) = Force(Pound-Force) × 0.001
Substitution:
Substitute given weight of door, Force(Pound-Force) = 50 in the above formula.
Force(Kip-Force) = 50 × 0.001
Force(Kip-Force) = 0.05
Final Answer:
Therefore, 50 lbf is equal to 0.05 kipf.
The force of door is 0.05 kipf, in kip-force.
2
Consider a spring applying 25 pound-force to a compressed object. Convert this force from pound-force to Kip-Force.
Answer:
Given:
The force of spring in pound-force is:
Force(Pound-Force) = 25
Formula:
The formula to convert force from pound-force to kip-force is:
Force(Kip-Force) = Force(Pound-Force) × 0.001
Substitution:
Substitute given weight of spring, Force(Pound-Force) = 25 in the above formula.
Force(Kip-Force) = 25 × 0.001
Force(Kip-Force) = 0.025
Final Answer:
Therefore, 25 lbf is equal to 0.025 kipf.
The force of spring is 0.025 kipf, in kip-force.
Pound-Force
Pound-force (lbf) is the force exerted by gravity on a one-pound mass. It is a commonly used unit in the United States to describe everyday forces, such as the force exerted by objects or people.
Kip-Force
A kip-force (kipf) is equal to 1,000 pounds-force. It is commonly used in structural engineering in the United States to describe the load-carrying capacity of structures and components.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What is the formula for converting Pound-Force to Kip-Force in Force?
The formula to convert Pound-Force to Kip-Force in Force is:
Pound-Force * 0.001
2. Is this tool free or paid?
This Force conversion tool, which converts Pound-Force to Kip-Force, is completely free to use.
3. How do I convert Force from Pound-Force to Kip-Force?
To convert Force from Pound-Force to Kip-Force, you can use the following formula:
Pound-Force * 0.001
