What is the Formula to convert Short Ton-Force to Kip-Force?

The formula to convert given force from Short Ton-Force to Kip-Force is:

Force(Kip-Force) = Force(Short Ton-Force) × 2.000000000002491

Substitute the given value of force in short ton-force, i.e., Force(Short Ton-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 crane lifting a load that requires 2 short ton-force.
Convert this force from short ton-force to Kip-Force.

Answer:

Given:

The force of crane lifing a load in short ton-force is:

Force(Short Ton-Force) = 2

Formula:

The formula to convert force from short ton-force to kip-force is:

Force(Kip-Force) = Force(Short Ton-Force) × 2.000000000002491

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of crane lifing a load, Force(Short Ton-Force) = 2 in the above formula.

Force(Kip-Force) = 2 × 2.000000000002491

Force(Kip-Force) = 4

Final Answer:

Therefore, 2 short tonf is equal to 4 kipf.

The force of crane lifing a load is 4 kipf, in kip-force.

2

Consider a structure that can support a maximum of 5 short ton-force.
Convert this force from short ton-force to Kip-Force.

Answer:

Given:

The force of structure in short ton-force is:

Force(Short Ton-Force) = 5

Formula:

The formula to convert force from short ton-force to kip-force is:

Force(Kip-Force) = Force(Short Ton-Force) × 2.000000000002491

Substitution:

Substitute given weight of structure, Force(Short Ton-Force) = 5 in the above formula.

Force(Kip-Force) = 5 × 2.000000000002491

Force(Kip-Force) = 10

Final Answer:

Therefore, 5 short tonf is equal to 10 kipf.

The force of structure is 10 kipf, in kip-force.

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.

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.
