What is the Formula to convert Poundals to Meganewtons?

The formula to convert given force from Poundals to Meganewtons is:

Force(Meganewtons) = Force(Poundals) × 1.382549543759999e-7

Substitute the given value of force in poundals, i.e., Force(Poundals) in the above formula and simplify the right-hand side value. The resulting value is the force in meganewtons, i.e., Force(Meganewtons).

Calculation

Calculation will be done after you enter a valid input.

Examples

1

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

Answer:

Given:

The force of ball in poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = 100

Formula:

The formula to convert force from poundals to meganewtons is:

Force(Meganewtons) = Force(Poundals) × 1.382549543759999e-7

Substitution:

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

Force(Meganewtons) = 100 × 1.382549543759999e-7

Force(Meganewtons) = 0.0000138255

Final Answer:

Therefore, 100 pdl is equal to 0.0000138255 MN.

The force of ball is 0.0000138255 MN, in meganewtons.

2

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

Answer:

Given:

The force of machine in poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = 500

Formula:

The formula to convert force from poundals to meganewtons is:

Force(Meganewtons) = Force(Poundals) × 1.382549543759999e-7

Substitution:

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

Force(Meganewtons) = 500 × 1.382549543759999e-7

Force(Meganewtons) = 0.00006912748

Final Answer:

Therefore, 500 pdl is equal to 0.00006912748 MN.

The force of machine is 0.00006912748 MN, in meganewtons.

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.

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.
