First of all, you should understand that force and mass are quite different things; in many cases it DOESN'T MAKE SENSE to convert one from the other.

In the following special case, you can do a conversion: if you assume measurements near the Earth's surface, a mass of 1 kilogram is attracted with a force of 9.8 newtons. So, if you know the weight in newtons, you can divide that by 9.8 to calculate the mass in kilograms.

If you convert 3 newtons into kilograms which measure mass you have 0.30591486389338 kg.


How many newtons are 18kg?

Technically, you can't convert kilograms (a mass unit) into newtons (a force unit).


WHAT IS THE WEIGHT OF A BOOT WITH THE MASS OF 850g?

Convert that to kilograms. Then multiply by 9.8 to convert to newtons. This assumes standard Earth gravity.


How many kilograms is 225 newtons?

You cannot convert from newtons to kilograms because the newton is a force unit and the kilogram is a mass unit. However, near the surface of the earth, a 22.9-kg mass would weigh 225 newtons.


How many newtons in 500 grams?

Convert the grams to the standard unit of mass - the kilogram. Then, assuming standard Earth gravity, multiply it by 9.8 to get the equivalent in newtons.


What is the weight of a person having a mass of 50Kg in newtons?

The answer is 110.231 lbs (approx.). Kilogram is the SI unit of mass and pound is an imperial unit of mass. To convert from kg to pound, multiply the kg unit by 2.20462.


Convert 108.86 kg to Newtons?

You can't. They are different units that depends on the force acting on the mass. For example, if the only force were gravity (approx 10), you would have approx 1088.6 Newtons

How do you convert 2 tons into newtons?

Tons are a measure of mass with dimensions in mass, whereas Newtons are a measure of force. A body of mass 2 tons on earth would have a mass of 2 tons on the moon but because of the difference in the gravitational force exerted by the Earth and Moon, the force exerted by the body would be quite different. Newtons are a metric unit whereas tons is an imperial unit. 1 metric tonne = 1000 kg.


What is 125.5 newtons in kg?

Divide the Newtons by 9.8 (or by 10 for a quick mental estimate). Important: You can't universally convert between kg. and Newtons; mass and force are very different concepts. We can only do this calculation if we assume a certain value for gravity.
