Curious about energy conversion? The MJ to kgf·m Converter by Newtum translates megajoules into kilogram-force meters, offering a user-friendly tool for precise calculations.
A megajoule (MJ) is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI). It is equivalent to one million joules, where a joule is the energy expended by a force of one newton moving an object one meter. The megajoule is commonly used in scientific and industrial applications to measure large quantities of energy, such as the output of power plants or the energy content of fuels.
Definition of Kilogram-force MeterA kilogram-force meter (kgf·m) is a unit of torque (a measure of the tendency of a force to rotate an object around an axis). It is the torque created by one kilogram-force acting at a perpendicular distance of one meter from a pivot point. This unit combines the mass (kilogram-force, which is based on gravitational force on a mass of one kilogram) with distance (meter) to describe rotational force in mechanical systems.
