Convert Gram-force to Newton
Unit definitions
Gram-force
Gram-force is the force exerted by a mass of one gram in standard gravity ($gₙ$) ($1\ \text{kgf} = 9.806\,65\ \text{N}$).
Newton
The newton is the SI unit of force. It is the force required to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at a rate of one meter per second squared.
How to convert Gram-force to Newton
$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = \text{Force}_{\text{gf}} \cdot 0.00980665$$
Examples
Example 1
Convert $45.0\ \text{gf}$ to $\text{N}$.
$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 45.0 \cdot 0.00980665$$
$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 0.441299$$
$$\therefore \ 45.0\ \text{gf} = 0.441299 \ \text{N}$$
Example 2
Convert $75.0\ \text{gf}$ to $\text{N}$.
$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 75.0 \cdot 0.00980665$$
$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 0.735499$$
$$\therefore \ 75.0\ \text{gf} = 0.735499 \ \text{N}$$
Example 3
Convert $105.0\ \text{gf}$ to $\text{N}$.
$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 105.0 \cdot 0.00980665$$
$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 1.029698$$
$$\therefore \ 105.0\ \text{gf} = 1.029698 \ \text{N}$$
Example 4
Convert $145.0\ \text{gf}$ to $\text{N}$.
$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 145.0 \cdot 0.00980665$$
$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 1.421964$$
$$\therefore \ 145.0\ \text{gf} = 1.421964 \ \text{N}$$
Example 5
Convert $200.0\ \text{gf}$ to $\text{N}$.
$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 200.0 \cdot 0.00980665$$
$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 1.96133$$
$$\therefore \ 200.0\ \text{gf} = 1.96133 \ \text{N}$$
