Explanation

  1. Kg is a unit of weight - but multiplied by acceleration it is a force. Confusion - people use kg and kg force interchangeably, so one needs to understand what is the case
  2. Imperial and metric conversion is confusing - a

Examples of Calculators

  1. kg cm to oz in - [1]. Units are consistent between kg cm and oz in.
  2. in lb to N m - [2]. Units are inconsistent - this really means in lb force to N m
  3. kg m force to ft lb force - [3]. Units are consistent.
