Piconewton to long ton-force converter (pN to long-tonf)

Conversion Formula

1 pN = 1.00e-16 long-tonf

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Piconewton = 1.00e-12 newtons
   1 Long ton-force = 9,964.0 newtons
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 pN = (1.00e-12 N) / (9,964.0 N/long-tonf) = 1.00e-16 long-tonf
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in pN by 1.00e-16 to get the equivalent in long-tonf

Example Conversion

Convert 5 pN to long-tonf:

5 pN × 1.00e-16 = 5.02e-16 long-tonf
