How many kN in 1 tf? The answer is 9.80665. We assume you are converting between kilonewton and ton-force [metric]. You can view more details on each measurement unit: kN or tf The SI derived unit for force is the newton. 1 newton is equal to 0.001 kN, or 0.00010197162129779 tf. Note that rounding errors may occur, so always check the results. Use this page to learn how to convert between kilonewtons and tons-force. Type in your own numbers in the form to convert the units!
1 kN to tf = 0.10197 tf
5 kN to tf = 0.50986 tf
10 kN to tf = 1.01972 tf
20 kN to tf = 2.03943 tf
30 kN to tf = 3.05915 tf
40 kN to tf = 4.07886 tf
50 kN to tf = 5.09858 tf
75 kN to tf = 7.64787 tf
100 kN to tf = 10.19716 tf
You can do the reverse unit conversion from tf to kN, or enter any two units below:
The SI prefix "kilo" represents a factor of 103, or in exponential notation, 1E3.
So 1 kilonewton = 103 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.
