FAQ
What force units are supported?
5 units: newton (N), kilonewton (kN), pound-force (lbf), dyne (dyn), and kilogram-force (kgf).
How do I convert newtons to pound-force?
Divide newtons by 4.44822. For example, 10 N = 2.248 lbf.
What is the difference between newton and kilogram-force?
1 kgf is the force exerted by 1 kg under standard gravity (9.80665 m/s²). 1 kgf = 9.80665 N.
What is a dyne?
A dyne is a CGS unit of force. 1 dyne = 10⁻⁵ N. It is commonly used in physics for small forces.
How many newtons is 1 pound-force?
1 pound-force equals approximately 4.44822 newtons.
