Convert Gram-force to Newton
Instantly convert Gram-force to Newton with our advanced Force calculator. Whether you need precise calculations for Gram-force or Newton, this tool provides accurate results with related formulas and conversion tables.
What is a Gram-force?
The Gram-force (gf) is a metric unit of force equal to the force exerted by standard gravity on one gram of mass.
What is a Newton?
The Newton (N) is the SI derived unit of force. It is defined as the force needed to accelerate one kilogram of mass at the rate of one meter per second squared.
How to Convert Gram-force to Newton
To convert Gram-force to Newton, divide the Gram-force value by 102.
N = gf ÷ 102Manual Calculation Steps
Step 1: Identify the Formula
The standard formula to convert from Gram-force to Newton is:
N = gf ÷ 102Step 2: Plug in the Value
Substitute the value you want to convert (for example, 5 gf) into the formula.
Step 3: Calculate the Result
Perform the calculation to get the result in Newton.
