Hectonewton to metric ton-force converter (hN to tf)

Conversion Formula

1 hN = 0.010197 tf

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Hectonewton = 100.000 newtons
   1 Metric ton-force = 9,806.7 newtons
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 hN = (100.000 N) / (9,806.7 N/tf) = 0.010197 tf
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in hN by 0.010197 to get the equivalent in tf

Example Conversion

Convert 5 hN to tf:

5 hN × 0.010197 = 0.050986 tf
