How to Convert Kilonewtons to Nanonewtons

To convert a measurement in kilonewtons to a measurement in nanonewtons, multiply the force by the following conversion ratio: 1,000,000,000,000 nanonewtons/kilonewton.

Since one kilonewton is equal to 1,000,000,000,000 nanonewtons, you can use this simple formula to convert:

nanonewtons = kilonewtons × 1,000,000,000,000

The force in nanonewtons is equal to the force in kilonewtons multiplied by 1,000,000,000,000.

For example, here's how to convert 5 kilonewtons to nanonewtons using the formula above.

nanonewtons = (5 kN × 1,000,000,000,000) = 5,000,000,000,000 nN

How Many Nanonewtons Are in a Kilonewton?

There are 1,000,000,000,000 nanonewtons in a kilonewton, which is why we use this value in the formula above.

1 kN = 1,000,000,000,000 nN

Kilonewtons and nanonewtons are both units used to measure force. Keep reading to learn more about each unit of measure.

What Is a Kilonewton?

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 thousands, or 10³. Kilonewtons can be abbreviated as kN; for example, 1 kilonewton can be written as 1 kN.

What Is a Nanonewton?

One nanonewton is equal to 1/1,000,000,000 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 nanonewton is a multiple of the newton, which is the SI derived unit for force. In the metric system, "nano" is the prefix for billionths, or 10^-9. Nanonewtons can be abbreviated as nN; for example, 1 nanonewton can be written as 1 nN.
