Newton to giganewton converter (N to GN)

Conversion Formula

1 N = 1.00e-9 GN

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Newton = 1.000 newtons
   1 Giganewton = 1,000,000,000 newtons
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 N = (1.000 N) / (1,000,000,000 N/GN) = 1.00e-9 GN
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in N by 1.00e-9 to get the equivalent in GN

Example Conversion

Convert 5 N to GN:

5 N × 1.00e-9 = 5.00e-9 GN
