What is a Piconewton?

The Piconewton (pN) is a unit of force equal to one-trillionth of a newton, used in measuring atomic forces.

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 Piconewton to Newton

To convert Piconewton to Newton, multiply the Piconewton value by 1e-12.

N = pN × 1e-12
