Conversion Formula
The formula to convert kilograms to newtons is N = kg * 9.81, where N is the force in newtons and kg is the mass in kilograms. This works because Earth’s gravity accelerates objects at approximately 9.81 meters per second squared. For example, 10 kg * 9.81 = 98.1 N.
Conversion Example
- Convert 45 kg to newtons:
- Multiply 45 by 9.81: 45 * 9.81 = 441.45 N.
- Interpretation: a 45 kg object exerts a force of 441.45 newtons under gravity.
- Convert 100 kg to newtons:
- Calculation: 100 * 9.81 = 981 N.
- Meaning: this object weighs 981 newtons due to Earth’s gravity.
- Convert 25 kg to newtons:
- Calculation: 25 * 9.81 = 245.25 N.
- This indicates the force exerted by a 25 kg mass.
- Convert 75 kg to newtons:
- Calculation: 75 * 9.81 = 735.75 N.
- The weight of a 75 kg object in newtons.
- Convert 60 kg to newtons:
- Calculation: 60 * 9.81 = 588.6 N.
- This shows how heavy a 60 kg mass feels under gravity.

Conversion Definitions
kg
Kg, or kilogram, is the SI base unit of mass, measuring the amount of matter in an object, where 1 kg equals approximately 2.20462 pounds. It is used worldwide for weighing and scientific measurements involving mass.
Newtons
Newtons are the SI unit of force, representing the push or pull on an object. One newton is the force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass at 1 meter per second squared. It quantifies the weight or force acting on objects in physics.
Conversion FAQs
Why does multiplying by 9.81 give the weight in newtons?
This is because Earth’s gravity accelerates objects at roughly 9.81 meters per second squared. When you multiply mass in kilograms by gravity, it results in the force in newtons exerted due to gravity, which is weight.
Can this conversion change with location?
Yes, the gravity varies slightly across different locations on Earth, so the value of 9.81 may alter slightly, affecting the force calculation. For precise work, local gravity values should be used.
Is the conversion the same for all planets?
No, different planets have different gravitational acceleration. For example, Mars’ gravity is about 3.71 m/s², so the force in newtons for the same mass would be less on Mars compared to Earth.
