Kilonewton.meter (abbreviations: KN.m, or kn m): is the moment of force in kilonewton times the distance between reference and application points in meter.
Newton Meter (abbreviations: N.m, or nm, or newton.meter): is the moment of force in newton times the distance between reference and application points in meter.
How to Convert Kilonewton Meters to Newton Meters
Example: How many newton meters are equivalent to 85.89 kilonewton meters?
As;
1 kilonewton meters = 1000 newton meters
85.89 kilonewton meters = Y newton meters
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 85.89 times 1000 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 85.89 * 1000 / 1 = 85890 newton meters
Answer is: 85890 newton meters are equivalent to 85.89 kilonewton meters.
