Hectonewton to giganewton converter (hN to GN)

Conversion Formula

1 hN = 1.00e-7 GN

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Hectonewton = 100.000 newtons
   1 Giganewton = 1,000,000,000 newtons
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 hN = (100.000 N) / (1,000,000,000 N/GN) = 1.00e-7 GN
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in hN by 1.00e-7 to get the equivalent in GN

Example Conversion

Convert 5 hN to GN:

5 hN × 1.00e-7 = 5.00e-7 GN
