You can do the reverse unit conversion from kgf to centinewton, or enter any two units below:
centinewton to petanewton
centinewton to ounce
centinewton to newton
centinewton to nanonewton
centinewton to yoctonewton
centinewton to femtonewton
centinewton to gram
centinewton to sthene
centinewton to joule/meter
centinewton to kip
The SI prefix "centi" represents a factor of 10-2, or in exponential notation, 1E-2.
So 1 centinewton = 10-2 newtons.
The definition of a newton is as follows:
In physics, the newton (symbol: N) is the SI unit of force, named after Sir Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on classical mechanics. It was first used around 1904, but not until 1948 was it officially adopted by the General Conference on Weights and Measures (CGPM) as the name for the mks unit of force.
The deprecated unit kilogram-force (kgf) or kilopond (kp) is the force exerted by one kilogram of mass in standard Earth gravity (defined as exactly 9.80665 m/sē). One kilogram-force is equal to exactly 9.80665 newtons.
