Discover the ease of converting gigatons (Gt) to gram-force meters (gf·m) with our user-friendly tool. Curated by Newtum, this converter provides accurate results for your complex calculations.
A gigaton, symbolized as Gt, is a unit of mass commonly used to measure the amount of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere. It is equivalent to one billion metric tons or 10^9 tons. Gigatons are often used in discussions about global warming and climate change to quantify the volume of greenhouse gases released.
Definition of Gram-force MeterA gram-force meter (gf·m) is a unit of torque, a measure of the rotational force applied to an object. One gram-force meter is the torque resulting from a one gram-force applied perpendicularly to a one-meter long lever arm. It is a practical unit for small-scale measurements in engineering and physics.
| Gigaton (Gt) | Gram-force Meter (gf·m) |
|---|---|
| 0.01 Gt | 9.80665e+16 gf·m |
| 0.1 Gt | 9.80665e+17 gf·m |
| 0.5 Gt | 4.903325e+18 gf·m |
| 1 Gt | 9.80665e+18 gf·m |
| 2 Gt | 1.96133e+19 gf·m |
| 5 Gt | 4.903325e+19 gf·m |
| 10 Gt | 9.80665e+19 gf·m |
| 20 Gt | 1.96133e+20 gf·m |
| 50 Gt | 4.903325e+20 gf·m |
| 100 Gt | 9.80665e+20 gf·m |
1 Gt = 9.80665e+18 gf·m
1 gf·m = 1.01972e-19 Gt
Example 1:
convert 2 Gt to gf·m:
2 Gt = 2 × 9.80665e+18 gf·m = 1.96133e+19 gf·m
Example 2:
convert 0.5 Gt to gf·m:
0.5 Gt = 0.5 × 9.80665e+18 gf·m = 4.903325e+18 gf·m
