Convert kilopond metre to j
Kilopond-Metre
A kilopond-metre (symbol: kp·m) is a unit of energy equal to 9.80665 joules, defined as the work done by a force of one kilopond (the weight of one kilogram under standard gravity) acting over a distance of one metre. It belongs to the gravitational metric system used in continental European engineering before SI standardisation. One kilopond-metre equals one kilogram-force-metre (kgf·m).
Joule
The joule (/dʒaʊ,dʒuːljawl, jool; symbol: J) is a derived unit of energy in the International System of Units. It is equal to the energy transferred to (or work done on) an object when a force of one newton acts on that object in the direction of the force's motion through a distance of one metre (1 newton metre or N⋅m). It is also the energy dissipated as heat when an electric current of one ampere passes through a resistance of one ohm for one second. It is named after the English physicist James Prescott Joule (1818–1889).
