Convert newton to kilonewton, abbreviated as N to kN. This is based formula: 1 newton = 0.001 kilonewton, under this rule, newtons can be easily converted into kilonewtons. 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
It is equal to one thousand newton. In other words, the force applied on One kilogram of body to accelerate it is called one kilo newton force.
One Kilo newton is equal to 10197 kgf
It is represented by the kN.
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.
If you want to know how to convert newton to kilonewton, you must get the conversion formula or factor first.
The Newton to Kilonewton formula is:
1 Newton = 0.001 kilonewton
Or convert the formula:
Through the formula, two answers can be easily obtained:
In other words, 1 newton equal to 0.001 kilonewton. To convert newtons to kilonewtons, just multiply newton by 0.001 or divide by 1000.
For example, convert 21 N to kN
21 N = 21 × 0.001 kN = 0.021 kN
or
21 ÷ 1000 = 0.021 kN
Through the above content, now you know how to convert newton to kilonewton.
But what if you need to reverse conversion kilonewton 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.
