Examples
1
Consider a ball that experiences 100 poundal of force when kicked. Convert this force from poundal to Short Ton-Force.
Answer:
Given:
The force of ball in poundals is:
Force(Poundals) = 100
Formula:
The formula to convert force from poundals to short ton-force is:
Therefore, 500 pdl is equal to 0.00777023754 short tonf.
The force of machine is 0.00777023754 short tonf, in short ton-force.
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.
Short Ton-Force
Short ton-force represents the force exerted by the weight of a short ton (2,000 pounds) under standard gravity. It is used primarily in the United States to describe large forces in engineering, construction, and mechanics.
