KG to Force Calculator

Enter the values of mass, m_(kg)  and acceleration due to gravity, a_(m/s2) to determine the value of Force, F_(N).

KG to Force Formula

Converting kilograms to force involves calculating the force exerted by an object due to gravity. This calculation translates the gravitational pull on an object into a measure of force.

Force, F_(N) in Newtons is equated  by multiplying the mass, m_(kg) in kilograms and acceleration due to gravity, a_(m/s2) in metres per second squared.

Force, F_(N) = m_(kg) * a_(m/s2)

F_(N) = force in Newtons, N.

m_(kg) = mass in kilograms, kg.

a_(m/s2) = acceleration due to gravity in metre per second squared, m/s² (9.81m/s²)

KG to Force Calculation:

1. Calculate the force exerted by a 10 kg object due to gravity.

Given: m_(kg) = 10kg, a_(m/s2) = 9.81m/s².

Force, F_(N) = m_(kg) * a_(m/s2)

F_(N) = 10 * 9.81

F_(N) = 98.1N.

2. Suppose you know that an object exerts a force of 196.2 Newtons due to gravity. Find the mass of the object in kilograms.

Given: F_(N) = 196.2N, a_(m/s2) = 9.81m/s².

Force, F_(N) = m_(kg) * a_(m/s2)

m_(kg) = F_(N) / a_(m/s2)

m_(kg) = 196.2 / 9.81

m_(kg) = 20kg.
