How many newtons is one kg?

Answer 1

1 newton N is the force of Earth's gravity on an object with a mass m of about 102 gram or 0.102 kilogram.

On Earth's surface, a mass of 1 kilogram exerts a force of approximately 9.81 N down; or 1 kg*m/s2. The approximation of 1 kilogram corresponding to 10 newton is sometimes used as a rule of thumb in everyday life and in engineering.

Newton is a force and Kilogram is a mass.

Mass is a measure of how much "stuff" there is, and is not to be confused with weight because an object with the mass of one kilogram will weigh different amounts in different accelerating frames of reference (or different gravitational fields which - according to Einstein - is the same thing). On the surface of the Moon the 1kg mass object will weigh less than on the surface of the Earth (your muscles will be able to lift it with less strain).

The force of gravity is measured in the unit Newtons. On the Moon it is about 0,1654N or 17% of that at sea level on Earth.

The quantities of kg and N are not universally exchangeable but on the surface of the earth at sea level one Newton is the force generated by gravity of about 0.1 kg.

Answer 2

On earth, 1 newton is the weight of 0.102 kilogram of mass.

newton is a unit of force, not a unit of mass. But if you're calculating the gravitational force at the gravitational acceleration 9.81 m/(s^2), then the mass that feels the force 1 newton at such acceleration is 0.102 kg

Answer 3

0.001 Newton = 1 kiloNewton 1 kiloNewton = 1000 Newtons

Answer 4

I Kilogram is equivalent to 9.80665 Newtons. To convert kilograms into Newtons, one needs to multiply the number of Kilograms by 9.80665.

Answer 5

on earth, the acceleration due to gravity is 9.81m/s^2. since F=m*a, the force produced would be 1kg*9.81m/s^2. That is, 9.81 kg*m/s^2, which is the same as 9.81 Newtons.

Answer 6

A newton is a measure of force and a gram is a measure of mass. The two are incomparable.
