Newtons to Micronewtons Conversion
Enter the force in newtons below to get the value converted to micronewtons.
How to Convert Newtons to Micronewtons
To convert a newton measurement to a micronewton measurement, multiply the force by the conversion ratio.
Since one newton is equal to 1,000,000 micronewtons, you can use this simple formula to convert:
The force in micronewtons is equal to the newtons multiplied by 1,000,000.
How Many Micronewtons are in a Newton?
There are 1,000,000 micronewtons in a newton, which is why we use this value in the formula above.
1 N = 1,000,000 μN
Newtons and micronewtons are both units used to measure force. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
Newtons
The newton is a unit to for measuring force equal to the force needed to move one kilogram of mass at a rate of one meter per second squared.[1]
The newton is the SI derived unit for force in the metric system. Newtons can be abbreviated as N; for example, 1 newton can be written as 1 N.
Newtons can be expressed using the formula: 1 N = 1 kgms2
Micronewtons
One micronewton is equal to 1/1,000,000 of a newton, which is equal to the force needed to move one kilogram of mass at a rate of one meter per second squared.
The micronewton is a multiple of the newton, which is the SI derived unit for force. In the metric system, "micro" is the prefix for 10-6. Micronewtons can be abbreviated as μN; for example, 1 micronewton can be written as 1 μN.
