Kilogram-force 千克力
(重定向自Kilogram force)
The kilogram-force (kgf or kgF), or kilopond (kp, from Latin pondus meaning weight), is a gravitational metric unit of force. It is equal to the magnitude of the force exerted by one kilogram of mass in a 7000980665000000000♠9.80665 m/s gravitational field (standard gravity, a conventional value approximating the average magnitude of gravity on Earth). Therefore one kilogram-force is by definition equal to 7000980665000000000♠9.80665 N. Similarly, a gram-force is 6997980665000000000♠9.80665 mN, and a milligram-force is 6994980664999999999♠9.80665 µN. One kilogram-force is approximately 2.204622 pounds-force.
