Enter the force in kilonewtons below to get the value converted to kilogram-force.
How to Convert Kilonewtons to Kilogram-force
To convert a kilonewton measurement to a kilogram-force measurement, multiply the force by the conversion ratio. One kilonewton is equal to 101.97162 kilogram-force, so use this simple formula to convert:
The force in kilogram-force is equal to the kilonewtons multiplied by 101.97162.
Kilonewtons and kilogram-force are both units used to measure force. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.
Kilonewtons
One kilonewton is equal to 1,000 newtons, which are equal to the force needed to move one kilogram of mass at a rate of one meter per second squared.
The kilonewton is a multiple of the newton, which is the SI derived unit for force. In the metric system, "kilo" is the prefix for 103. Kilonewtons can be abbreviated as kN, for example 1 kilonewton can be written as 1 kN.
Kilogram-force
Kilogram-force is a unit of force equal to the force needed to move one kilogram of mass at a rate of 9.80665 meters per second squared.
The kilogram-force is a non-SI metric unit for force. A kilogram-force is sometimes also referred to as a kilopond. Kilogram-force can be abbreviated as kgf, and are also sometimes abbreviated as kgF. For example, 1 kilogram-force can be written as 1 kgf or 1 kgF.
Kilogram-force can be expressed using the formula: 1 kgf = 9.80665 kgms2
