Key Conversion Formulas
Newton to Pound-force:
lbf = N ÷ 4.4482216152605
Example: 10 N = 10 ÷ 4.448 = 2.248 lbf
Newton to Kilogram-force:
kgf = N ÷ 9.80665
Example: 98.07 N = 98.07 ÷ 9.807 = 10 kgf
Newton to Dyne:
dyn = N × 100,000
Example: 1 N = 1 × 100,000 = 100,000 dyn
Kilonewton to Newton:
N = kN × 1,000
Example: 5 kN = 5 × 1,000 = 5,000 N

Practice Problems with Solutions
Problem 1:
Convert 150 N to pound-force (lbf)
Solution: 150 ÷ 4.4482 = 33.72 lbf
Formula: lbf = N ÷ 4.4482216152605
Problem 2:
Convert 75 kgf to Newton (N)
Solution: 75 × 9.80665 = 735.5 N
Formula: N = kgf × 9.80665
Problem 3:
Convert 2.5 kN to Newton (N)
Solution: 2.5 × 1,000 = 2,500 N
Formula: N = kN × 1,000
Problem 4:
Convert 500,000 dyne to Newton (N)
Solution: 500,000 × 0.00001 = 5 N
Formula: N = dyn × 0.00001
Problem 5:
Convert 200 lbf to kilogram-force (kgf)
Solution: (200 × 4.4482) ÷ 9.80665 = 90.72 kgf
Formula: kgf = (lbf × 4.4482) ÷ 9.80665
