Tons are a measure of mass with dimensions in mass, whereas Newtons are a measure of force. A body of mass 2 tons on earth would have a mass of 2 tons on the moon but because of the difference in the gravitational force exerted by the Earth and Moon, the force exerted by the body would be quite different.

Newtons are a metric unit whereas tons is an imperial unit. 1 metric tonne = 1000 kg.

What is 900 newtons in kilogram?

To convert from newtons to kilograms, divide the force in newtons by the acceleration due to gravity, which is approximately 9.81 m/s^2. So, 900 newtons is approximately equal to 91.73 kilograms.


The heaviest invertebrate is the giant squid which is estimated to have a weight of about 2 tons spread out over its length of 70 feet. What is its weight in newtons?

The weight of the giant squid can be calculated by using the formula: weight = mass x gravity. Since weight is a force measured in newtons, the weight of the giant squid would be about 19,620 newtons (2 tons x 9.81 m/s^2).


How do you convert 4000 pounds to tons?

To convert pounds to tons, you need to divide the number of pounds by 2000, since 1 ton is equivalent to 2000 pounds. In this case, 4000 pounds divided by 2000 equals 2 tons.
