Discover the precision and ease of converting kp·m to Mt with our Kilopond Meter to Megaton Converter, and satisfy your curiosity about unit conversion!
A kilopond, also known as a kilogram-force, is a unit of force. It is defined as the gravitational force exerted by a mass of one kilogram at the standard acceleration due to Earth's gravity of 9.80665 meters per second squared. Therefore, one kilopond is equal to 9.80665 newtons.
Definition of MegatonA megaton is a unit of energy typically used to describe the explosive power of nuclear weapons. It is equivalent to the energy released by detonating one million tons of TNT (trinitrotoluene). In terms of joules, one megaton equals approximately 4.184 petajoules.
| Kilopond Meter (kp·m) | Megaton (Mt) |
|---|---|
| 1 kp·m | 1.12e-12 Mt |
| 10 kp·m | 1.12e-11 Mt |
| 100 kp·m | 1.12e-10 Mt |
| 1,000 kp·m | 1.12e-9 Mt |
| 10,000 kp·m | 1.12e-8 Mt |
| 100,000 kp·m | 1.12e-7 Mt |
| 1,000,000 kp·m | 1.12e-6 Mt |
| 10,000,000 kp·m | 1.12e-5 Mt |
| 100,000,000 kp·m | 1.12e-4 Mt |
| 1,000,000,000 kp·m | 1.12e-3 Mt |
Example 1:
Convert 5 kp·m to Mt:
5 kp·m = 5 x 1.12e-12 Mt = 5.6e-12 Mt
Example 2:
Convert 20 kp·m to Mt:
20 kp·m = 20 x 1.12e-12 Mt = 2.24e-11 Mt
