Conversion Formula
The formula to convert newtons (N) to kilograms (kg) is: mass (kg) = force (N) ÷ gravity (m/s²). Since Earth’s gravity is approximately 9.81 m/s², dividing the force in newtons by 9.81 results in the mass in kg. For example, 96.6 N divided by 9.81 equals roughly 9.86 kg.
Conversion Example
- Convert 50 N to kg:
- Divide 50 by 9.81.
- 50 ÷ 9.81 ≈ 5.10 kg.
- Convert 150 N to kg:
- Divide 150 by 9.81.
- 150 ÷ 9.81 ≈ 15.28 kg.
- Convert 200 N to kg:
- Divide 200 by 9.81.
- 200 ÷ 9.81 ≈ 20.39 kg.
- Convert 75 N to kg:
- Divide 75 by 9.81.
- 75 ÷ 9.81 ≈ 7.64 kg.
- Convert 120 N to kg:
- Divide 120 by 9.81.
- 120 ÷ 9.81 ≈ 12.23 kg.

Conversion Definitions
n
In physics, n represents a force measured in newtons, which indicates how much push or pull is exerted on an object, based on Earth’s gravity. It quantifies force, with 1 N needed to accelerate 1 kg at 9.81 m/s².
kg
Kilogram is the base SI unit of mass, representing how much matter an object contains. It is used globally to measure mass, where 1 kg equals approximately 2.20462 pounds, and is fundamental in physics and everyday weight measurements.
Conversion FAQs
How accurate is the conversion from N to kg on Earth’s surface?
The conversion assumes standard gravity of 9.81 m/s². Variations in gravity at different locations can affect accuracy slightly. For most purposes, this approximation provides a close estimate of mass from force in newtons.
Can I convert N to kg for other planets?
Yes, but you need to adjust the gravity value used in the formula. For example, Mars has approximately 3.71 m/s² gravity, so dividing force by that value gives mass in kg on Mars, not Earth’s standard gravity.
What is the difference between force and mass in these conversions?
Force (N) measures push or pull, while mass (kg) is the amount of matter. Converting between them involves gravity because force depends on mass times gravity. Without gravity, N and kg are unrelated units.
Why do I need to divide by 9.81 to convert N to kg?
Dividing by 9.81 removes the effect of Earth’s gravity from force, revealing the mass in kg. Since 1 N equals the force to accelerate 1 kg at 9.81 m/s², this division isolates the mass component.
