In this article I will show you how to convert 15 kilonewtons into newtons. Throughout the explanation below I might also call it 15 kn to n. They are the same thing!
How to Convert Kilonewtons to Newtons
A kilonewton is greater than a newton. I know that a kn is greater than a n because of something called conversion factors.
Put very simply, a conversion factor is a number that can be used to change one set of units to another, by multiplying or dividing it. So when we need to convert 15 kilonewtons into newtons, we use a conversion factor to get the answer.
The conversion factor for kn to n is:
Now that we know what the conversion factor is, we can easily calculate the conversion of 15 kn to n by multiplying 1000
by the number of kilonewtons we have, which is 15.
So, the answer to the question "what is 15 kilonewtons in newtons?" is 15000 n.
