The formula
lbf = N × 0.224809
Worked through with a real value: 10 newtons = 2.24809 pounds-force.
Going the other way: N = lbf × 4.44822, so 1 pound-force = 4.44822 newtons.
What each unit is
- newton N
- The SI unit of force, equal to the force needed to accelerate one kilogram at one metre per second squared.
- pound-force lbf
- The force exerted by one pound mass under standard gravity at sea level. Approximately 4.45 newtons.
Where these come from
- 1 pound-force = 4.4482216152605 newtons
Every other number on this page is computed from those, and each category is pinned to conversions worked out by hand from the units' primary definitions before it ships.
