| Details | A kilopond (kp) is a non-SI unit of force that was mainly used in some European countries before the adoption of the International System of Units (SI). It represents the force exerted by Earth's gravity on a mass of one kilogram. In other words, a force of one kilopond is the gravitational force that acts on an object having a mass of one kilogram under Earth's gravity. The unit kilopond is often informally referred to as "kilogram-force" (kgf), although the two are technically different. One kilopond is equivalent to 9.80665 newtons, which is the standard gravitational force acting on an object with a mass of one kilogram. Since the newton (N) is the SI unit of force, kiloponds are most commonly converted to newtons when discussing force in modern scientific contexts. |
