Piconewton to short ton-force converter (pN to sh-tonf)

Conversion Formula

1 pN = 1.12e-16 sh-tonf

Step-by-Step Explanation

1. Understand the base relationship:
   1 Piconewton = 1.00e-12 newtons
   1 Short ton-force = 8,896.4 newtons
2. Establish the conversion factor:
   1 pN = (1.00e-12 N) / (8,896.4 N/sh-tonf) = 1.12e-16 sh-tonf
3. Apply the conversion:
   Multiply the value in pN by 1.12e-16 to get the equivalent in sh-tonf

Example Conversion

Convert 5 pN to sh-tonf:

5 pN × 1.12e-16 = 5.62e-16 sh-tonf
