What Is DaN Force?
What Is DaN Force? It is common to see forces expressed in dekanewtons (symbol: daN) or kilonewtons (symbol: kN). 1 dekanewton (daN) = 10 newtons (N) 1 kilonewton (kN) = 100 dekanewton (daN) = 1000 newtons (N) On Earth’s surface, a mass of 1 kg exerts a force of approximately 9.8 N (down), or 1.0
