Understanding Newton to Kilonewton Conversion
What is a Newton (N)?
A Newton is the SI unit of force. It's defined as the force needed to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared. The formula is: 1 N = 1 kg⋅m/s²
What is a Kilonewton (kN)?
A Kilonewton is equal to 1,000 Newtons. The prefix 'kilo-' represents 1,000 units. It's commonly used in engineering and construction for larger force measurements.
Conversion Formula
To convert from Newtons (N) to Kilonewtons (kN), use this formula:
kN = N ÷ 1,000
