Centinewton to hectonewton converter (cN to hN)

Conversion Formula

1 cN = 1.00e-4 hN

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Centinewton = 0.010000 newtons
   1 Hectonewton = 100.000 newtons
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 cN = (0.010000 N) / (100.000 N/hN) = 1.00e-4 hN
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in cN by 1.00e-4 to get the equivalent in hN

Example Conversion

Convert 5 cN to hN:

5 cN × 1.00e-4 = 5.00e-4 hN
