Kilonewton Per Linear Meter (abbreviations: kN/m, or kNpm): is a force in kilonewton applied over a unit length in linear meter.
Newton Per Linear Meter (abbreviations: N/m, or Npm): is a force in newton applied over a unit length in linear meter.
How to Convert Kilonewtons Per Linear Meters to Newton Per Linear Meters
Example: How many newton per linear meters are equivalent to 77.55 Kilonewtons per linear meters?
As;
1 Kilonewtons per linear meters = 1000 newton per linear meters
77.55 Kilonewtons per linear meters = Y newton per linear meters
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 77.55 times 1000 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 77.55 * 1000 / 1 = 77550 newton per linear meters
Answer is: 77550 newton per linear meters are equivalent to 77.55 Kilonewtons per linear meters.
