Discover the ease of converting energy from Kilowatt-seconds to mechanical work in Gram-force Centimeters. Get curious about the precision that this tool by Newtum offers.
A kilowatt-second (kWs) is a unit of energy. It represents the amount of energy expended when a power of one kilowatt is used for a duration of one second. This unit is a product of power, measured in kilowatts, and time, measured in seconds, thereby reflecting the energy usage or work done over that period. It is a convenient measure for electrical energy in contexts where both power levels and time are of interest.
Definition of Gram-force-centimeterA gram-force centimeter (gf·cm) is a unit of torque or moment of force. It is the torque resulting from a force of one gram-force applied perpendicularly to a moment arm which is one centimeter long. This unit is commonly used in engineering and physics to quantify the rotational force applied to objects. It is particularly useful when dealing with small-scale systems or components where force is measured in grams rather than the larger newton unit.

100000 kWs | 980665000 gf·cm |
1000000 kWs | 9806650000 gf·cm |
1 kWs = 9806.65 gf·cm
1 gf·cm = 0.000102 kWs
Example 1:
Convert 2 kWs to gf·cm:
2 kWs = 2 × 9806.65 gf·cm = 19613.3 gf·cm
Example 2:
Convert 0.5 kWs to gf·cm:
0.5 kWs = 0.5 × 9806.65 gf·cm = 4903.325 gf·cm
