Convert kiloelectron-volt to gram-force meter
Please provide values below to convert kiloelectron-volt [keV] to gram-force meter [gf*m], or Convert gram-force meter to kiloelectron-volt.
1 keV = 1.6338e-14 gf*m. To convert kiloelectron-volt to gram-force meter, multiply the value by 1.6338e-14; to go the other way, divide by it (1 gf*m = 6.1208e+13 keV). Both units measure energy and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 keV = 1.6338e-14 gf*m
- 1 gf*m = 6.1208e+13 keV
- 10 keV = 1.6338e-13 gf*m
- 100 keV = 1.6338e-12 gf*m
How to Convert Kiloelectron-Volt to Gram-Force Meter

Kiloelectron-Volt
A kiloelectron-volt (keV) is a unit of energy equal to 1,000 electron-volts, commonly used in atomic and nuclear physics to measure small amounts of energy.
History/Origin
The electron-volt was introduced in the early 20th century as a convenient unit for expressing energies at the atomic scale, with the prefix 'kilo' added later to denote 1,000 electron-volts, especially in high-energy physics and astrophysics.
Current Use
The keV is widely used today in fields such as X-ray spectroscopy, astrophysics, and particle physics to quantify energies of particles, photons, and nuclear processes.
Gram-Force Meter
A gram-force meter (gf·m) is a unit of torque or moment of force, representing the force of one gram-force applied at a distance of one meter from the pivot point.
History/Origin
The gram-force meter originated from the use of the gram-force as a unit of force in the centimeter-gram-second (CGS) system, primarily used in scientific and engineering contexts before the adoption of SI units.
Current Use
Today, the gram-force meter is rarely used; it is mainly of historical interest or in specific niche applications where CGS units are still referenced, but most torque measurements are expressed in SI units such as newton-meters.
