Examples

1

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

Answer:

Given:

The force of ball in poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = 100

Formula:

The formula to convert force from poundals to petanewtons is:

Force(Petanewtons) = Force(Poundals) × 1.3825495437599988e-16

Substitution:

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

Force(Petanewtons) = 100 × 1.3825495437599988e-16

Force(Petanewtons) = 0

Final Answer:

Therefore, 100 pdl is equal to 0 PT.

The force of ball is 0 PT, in petanewtons.

2

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

Answer:

Given:

The force of machine in poundals is:

Force(Poundals) = 500

Formula:

The formula to convert force from poundals to petanewtons is:

Force(Petanewtons) = Force(Poundals) × 1.3825495437599988e-16

Substitution:

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

Force(Petanewtons) = 500 × 1.3825495437599988e-16

Force(Petanewtons) = 0

Final Answer:

Therefore, 500 pdl is equal to 0 PT.

The force of machine is 0 PT, in petanewtons.

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.

Petanewtons

A petanewton (PT) is equal to 1015 newtons. It’s an extremely large unit of force, mostly theoretical, used in astrophysics or high-energy physics to describe forces acting at a massive scale, such as between planets or in star formation.
