kilogram-force to newton
Please provide values below to convert kilogram-force [kgf] to newton [N], or change ↔.
kilogram-force [kgf]
Definition: A kilogram-force is a unit of force equal to the gravitational force exerted on a mass of one kilogram.
Historyandorigin: It is based on the gravitational force.
CurrentUse: It is used in some engineering contexts.
funfact: One kilogram-force is approximately equal to 9.80665 newtons.
newton [N]
Definition: The newton is the base unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as the force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by one meter per second squared.
Historyandorigin: Named after Sir Isaac Newton, it was introduced in the 20th century.
CurrentUse: It is widely used in scientific and engineering contexts.
funfact: One newton is approximately the force required to lift an apple.

How to Convert kilogram-force to newton
1 kilogram-force [kgf] = 9.80665 newton [N]
1 newton [N] = 0.1019716213 kilogram-force [kgf]
we use cross multiplication method
kilogram-force [kgf] → newton [N]
1 → 9.80665
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*9.80665=1*x
by simplifying
x=14.709975
