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

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

nanonewtons = micronewtons × 1,000

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

For example, here's how to convert 5 micronewtons to nanonewtons using the formula above.
nanonewtons = (5 μN × 1,000) = 5,000 nN

How Many Nanonewtons Are in a Micronewton?

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

1 μN = 1,000 nN

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

What Is a Micronewton?

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 millionths, or 10-6. Micronewtons can be abbreviated as μN; for example, 1 micronewton can be written as 1 μN.

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.
