Examples

1

Consider a ball that experiences 100 poundal of force when kicked.
Convert this force from poundal to Kiloponds.

Answer:

Given:

The force of ball in poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = 100

Formula:

The formula to convert force from poundals to kiloponds is:

Force(Kiloponds) = Force(Poundals) × 0.014098081850172695

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of ball, Force(Poundals) = 100 in the above formula.

Force(Kiloponds) = 100 × 0.014098081850172695

Force(Kiloponds) = 1.4098

Final Answer:

Therefore, 100 pdl is equal to 1.4098 kp.

The force of ball is 1.4098 kp, in kiloponds.

2

Consider a machine applying 500 poundal to move an object across a surface.
Convert this force from poundal to Kiloponds.

Answer:

Given:

The force of machine in poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = 500

Formula:

The formula to convert force from poundals to kiloponds is:

Force(Kiloponds) = Force(Poundals) × 0.014098081850172695

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of machine, Force(Poundals) = 500 in the above formula.

Force(Kiloponds) = 500 × 0.014098081850172695

Force(Kiloponds) = 7.049

Final Answer:

Therefore, 500 pdl is equal to 7.049 kp.

The force of machine is 7.049 kp, in kiloponds.

Poundals

A poundal (pdl) is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, equal to about 0.138 newtons. It is used in some engineering and physics applications to measure force in non-SI units.

Kiloponds

A kilopond (kp) is equivalent to kilogram-force. It was previously used to measure forces exerted by larger masses, but it has been replaced by more standardized units like the newton.
