What is the Formula to convert Short Ton-Force to Petanewtons?
The formula to convert given force from Short Ton-Force to Petanewtons is:
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 petanewtons, i.e., Force(Petanewtons).
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 Petanewtons.
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 petanewtons is:
Substitute given weight of structure, Force(Short Ton-Force) = 5 in the above formula.
Force(Petanewtons) = 5 × 8.896443230520623e-12
Force(Petanewtons) = 4e-11
Final Answer:
Therefore, 5 short tonf is equal to 4e-11 PT.
The force of structure is 4e-11 PT, in petanewtons.
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.
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.
