Convert nanonewton to teranewton
Please provide values below to convert nanonewton [nN] to teranewton [TN], or Convert teranewton to nanonewton.
1 nN = 1.0000e-21 TN. To convert nanonewton to teranewton, multiply the value by 1.0000e-21; to go the other way, divide by it (1 TN = 1.0000e+21 nN). Both units measure force and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 nN = 1.0000e-21 TN
- 1 TN = 1.0000e+21 nN
- 10 nN = 1.0000e-20 TN
- 100 nN = 1.0000e-19 TN
How to Convert Nanonewton to Teranewton
1 nN = 1e-21 TN
Example: convert 15 nN to TN:
15 nN = 15 × 1e-21 TN = 1.5e-20 TN

Nanonewton
A nanonewton (nN) is a unit of force equal to one billionth (10^-9) of a newton.
History/Origin
The nanonewton was introduced as part of the SI system's prefix-based units to measure very small forces, especially in scientific and engineering contexts, following the adoption of the SI units and prefixes.
Current Use
Nanonewtons are used in fields such as nanotechnology, materials science, and precision instrumentation to quantify extremely small forces.
Teranewton
A teranewton (TN) is a unit of force equal to one trillion newtons (10^12 N).
History/Origin
The teranewton was introduced as part of the metric system's expansion to accommodate very large force measurements, following the adoption of the SI units, to facilitate scientific and engineering calculations involving immense forces.
Current Use
The teranewton is primarily used in scientific research and engineering fields dealing with extremely large forces, such as astrophysics, large-scale structural analysis, and high-energy physics.
