How to Convert Newtons to Kilogram-force
To convert newtons to kilogram-force (kgf), divide the number of newtons by 9.80665. This is because 1 kilogram-force is equal to approximately 9.80665 newtons.
Formula
Kilogram-force = Newtons ÷ 9.80665
or
kgf = N ÷ 9.80665
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in newtons
- Divide that number by 9.80665
- The result is the equivalent force in kilogram-force
Examples
- 10 N = 10 ÷ 9.80665 = 1.0197 kgf
- 50 N = 50 ÷ 9.80665 = 5.0986 kgf
- 100 N = 100 ÷ 9.80665 = 10.197 kgf
