Convert newton to kilograms force, abbreviated as N to kgf. This is based formula: 1 newton = 0.1019716 kilograms force, under this rule, newtons can be easily converted into kilograms forces. Now, let’s discuss in more detail.
It is the most widely used unit for representing force.
The force applied on a body of 1kg to bring an acceleration of meter per square second.
Its named after the scientist sit Isaac newton for honoring his services in classical mechanics. This name is given in 1948 by the CGPM resolution.
This concept was described by newton in 2nd law of motion where an expression given below explains the relation between force on mass to accelerate it. The force applied on a body is directly proportional to the mass of the object to cause acceleration in it.
F=ma (newton second law of motion)
It is represented with N.
1N = 1 kg·m/s2
The force which applied on the one kilogram of mass of object to change the acceleration is called kilogram force.
For example the force applied on 1kg of football to change its motion will be one kilogram force.
As discussed above, it has close relation with gram force with a difference in mass for both of units.
It is represented with kgf.
In SI one kgf = 9.80665 m/s2
If you want to know how to convert newton to kilograms force, you must get the conversion formula or factor first.
The Newton to Kilograms Force formula is:
Newton = 0.1019716 kilograms force
Or convert the formula:
1 kilograms force = 9.80665 newton
Through the formula, two answers can be easily obtained:
In other words, 1 newton equal to 0.1019716 kilograms force. To convert newtons to kilograms forces, just multiply newton by 0.1019716 or divide by 9.80665.
For example, convert 9 N to kgf
9 N = 9 × 0.1019716 kgf = 0.9177444 kgf
or
9 ÷ 9.80665 = 0.9177444 kgf
Through the above content, now you know how to convert newton to kilograms force.
But what if you need to reverse conversion kilograms force to newton or convert newtons into other force units? Don’t be nervous, convertfreedom site are all ready for you, just click the corresponding link below.
