Convert Kilonewton to Newton

Unit definitions

Kilonewton

${10}^{3}$ newtons equal one kilonewton.

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 Kilonewton to Newton

$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = \text{Force}_{\text{kN}} \cdot {10}^{3}$$

Examples

Example 1

Convert $20.0\ \text{kN}$ to $\text{N}$.

$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 20.0 \cdot {10}^{3}$$

$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 20000$$

$$\therefore \ 20.0\ \text{kN} = 20000 \ \text{N}$$

Example 2

Convert $70.0\ \text{kN}$ to $\text{N}$.

$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 70.0 \cdot {10}^{3}$$

$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 70000$$

$$\therefore \ 70.0\ \text{kN} = 70000 \ \text{N}$$

Example 3

Convert $100.0\ \text{kN}$ to $\text{N}$.

$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 100.0 \cdot {10}^{3}$$

$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 100000$$

$$\therefore \ 100.0\ \text{kN} = 100000 \ \text{N}$$

Example 4

Convert $135.0\ \text{kN}$ to $\text{N}$.

$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 135.0 \cdot {10}^{3}$$

$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 135000$$

$$\therefore \ 135.0\ \text{kN} = 135000 \ \text{N}$$

Example 5

Convert $180.0\ \text{kN}$ to $\text{N}$.

$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 180.0 \cdot {10}^{3}$$

$$\text{Force}_{\text{N}} = 180000$$

$$\therefore \ 180.0\ \text{kN} = 180000 \ \text{N}$$
