Convert gram-force • foot to gram-force • meter

Learn how to convert 1 gram-force • foot to gram-force • meter step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (g r a m - f o r c e \times f o o t) = x (g r a m - f o r c e \times m e t e r)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(n e w t o n \times m e t e r)

Left side: 1.0 (g r a m - f o r c e \times f o o t) = 2.98906692 \times 10^{- 3} (n e w t o n \times m e t e r) = 2.98906692 \times 10^{- 3} (N \cdot m)

Right side: 1.0 (g r a m - f o r c e \times m e t e r) = 9.80665 \times 10^{- 3} (n e w t o n \times m e t e r) = 9.80665 \times 10^{- 3} (N \cdot m)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (g r a m - f o r c e \times f o o t) = x (g r a m - f o r c e \times m e t e r)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 2.98906692 \times 10^{- 3} \times (n e w t o n \times m e t e r) = x \times 9.80665 \times 10^{- 3} \times (n e w t o n \times m e t e r)

Or

1.0 \cdot 2.98906692 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (N \cdot m) = x \cdot 9.80665 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (N \cdot m)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 2.98906692 \times 10^{- 3} \cdot (N \cdot m) = x \times 9.80665 \times 10^{- 3} \times (N \cdot m)

Conversion Equation

2.98906692 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 9.80665 \times 10^{- 3}

Cancel factors on both sides

Cancel factors

2.98906692 \times 10^{- 3} = x \times 9.80665 \times 10^{- 3}

Simplify

2.98906692 = x \times 9.80665

Switch sides

x \times 9.80665 = 2.98906692

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{9.80665})

x \times 9.80665 \times \frac{1.0}{9.80665} = 2.98906692 \times \frac{1.0}{9.80665}

Cancel

x \times 9.80665 \times \frac{1.0}{9.80665} = 2.98906692 \times \frac{1.0}{9.80665}

Simplify

x = \frac{2.98906692}{9.80665}

Solve

x

x = 0.3048 = 3.048 \times 10^{- 1}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (g r a m - f o r c e \times f o o t) = 3.048 \times 10^{- 1} (g r a m - f o r c e \times m e t e r)
