Mechanical Engineering Interview Question:

How much is 1 KN in Kg?

Submitted by: Administrator

A Newton, N, is a measure of force while a kilogram, kg, is a measure of mass. Therefore, any number of kN does not equal any number of kg.
This however is useful
1 N = 1 kg*m*s^-2
edit:
F=m×a
[F=force; m= mass; a=acceleration (g in case of acceleration due to gravity = 9.08665m/s^2)]
m=F/g=1/9.08665=0,11Kg
