Convert newton to kilopound force
Newton
The newton (symbol: N) is the SI unit of force, named after Sir Isaac Newton. One newton is the force needed to accelerate a mass of one kilogram at one metre per second squared (1 N = 1 kg·m/s²). Roughly the weight of a small (100 g) apple under standard gravity, it is the base unit used throughout physics and engineering to express force, weight and thrust.
Kilopound-force
The kilopound-force (kipf), also called the kip, is a unit of force equal to 1,000 pounds-force and approximately 4448.222 newtons. It is widely used in American structural engineering and construction to describe forces, loads, and stresses on large structures. The unit simplifies calculations that would otherwise involve unwieldy four- to six-digit pound-force values. It is numerically equivalent to the kip-force.
