How do you convert Kg's to Newtons?

Physics

You don't convert kilograms to newtons.  By the time you've heard of these units, you know that 'kilogram' is a unit of mass, 'newton' is a unit of force or weight, and that mass and weight are different things.

Mass and force are <u>related</u> by Newton's second law: 

                       Force = Mass x acceleration .

From this simple formula, you can see that in order to relate a mass to a force, you need to know an acceleration.  And if the acceleration changes, then the relationship between the force and the mass also changes.  So there's no direct conversion.

ON EARTH ONLY, one kilogram of mass <em>weighs</em> 9.8 newtons. The acceleration that connects them is the acceleration of gravity on Earth.  In other places, with different gravitational accelerations, 1 kilogram weighs more or less newtons.

But they don't convert directly.  That would be like asking "How do you convert miles to miles-per-hour ?"

The latin word (Cirro) mean that the clouds are in high level <br><br> True of false?
Ivahew [28]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

The Latin word "Cirro" means "curly" or "curl of hair" as in a cirrocumulus cloud. Cirrocumulus clouds are wispy clouds, and while they do appear high in the sky, the word "cirro" does not mean high in level.

Therefore, the answer is False.

Have a lovely rest of your day/night, and good luck with your assignments! ♡
