Enter the force and acceleration due to gravity into the calculator to determine the weight in kilograms.
N To Kg Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the weight in kilograms.
Kg = N / g
Variables:
- Kg is the weight in kilograms (kg)
- N is the force in newtons (N)
- g is the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s²)
To calculate the weight in kilograms, divide the force in newtons by the acceleration due to gravity.
What is a N To Kg?
N to Kg refers to the conversion from Newtons to Kilograms. Newton is the SI unit for force, while Kilogram is the SI unit for mass. The conversion is usually done in the context of physics and engineering, and it involves the use of the formula F=ma (Force equals mass times acceleration). In this case, the acceleration is due to gravity, which is approximately 9.8 m/s² on Earth. Therefore, to convert from Newtons to Kilograms, one would divide the force in Newtons by the acceleration due to gravity.
How to Calculate N To Kg?
The following steps outline how to calculate the weight in kilograms (Kg) using the formula: Kg = N / g.
- First, determine the force in newtons (N).
- Next, determine the acceleration due to gravity (g) which is 9.8 m/s².
- Next, gather the formula from above = Kg = N / g.
- Finally, calculate the weight in kilograms (Kg).
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
force in newtons (N) = 50
acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
