We use the relationship between mass, gravitational acceleration, and length units to convert 0.016 kg/cm into N/m.
To convert kilogrammes to newtons:
The force that gravity exerts on a mass is called weight.
1 kilogramme = 9.80665 N (since F = m×g).
Therefore, mass units are converted to force units by multiplying by g.
From meters to centimetres:
1 cm = 0.01 m.
Since there are 100 centimetres in a metre, converting from the provided unit of centimetres to meters requires multiplying by 100.
Combining the two steps:
1 kg/cm = 9.80665 × 100 = 980.665 N/m.
Consequently,
0.016 kg/cm = 0.016 × 980.665 = 15.69 N/m.
