559 newtons is approximately 56.98 kilograms.
This conversion is based on the fact that 1 kilogram-force (kgf) equals 9.80665 newtons. To find the mass in kilograms that corresponds to 559 newtons, divide the force by gravity’s acceleration. So, 559 divided by 9.80665 gives the mass in kilograms.

Conversion Formula
The conversion from newtons to kilograms is based on dividing the force in newtons by the standard acceleration due to gravity, which is 9.80665 m/s². This works because weight (force) equals mass multiplied by gravity. Therefore, mass in kilograms equals force in newtons divided by 9.80665.
For example, with 559 newtons: 559 / 9.80665 = approximately 56.98 kilograms. This calculation turns the force measurement into a mass measurement assuming Earth’s gravity.
Conversion Example
- Convert 600 newtons to kilograms:
- Step 1: Write down the force: 600 N

Conversion Definitions
Newtons
Newtons is a unit of force in the metric system, defined as the force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass at a rate of one meter per second squared. It measures push, pull, or lift in scientific and engineering contexts.
Kilograms
Kilograms is a unit of mass in the metric system, representing the amount of matter in an object. It is the base unit of mass in the International System of Units, and is used worldwide for measuring weight and quantity of material.
Conversion FAQs
Can I convert newtons to kilograms directly?
Directly converting newtons to kilograms is not possible because they measure different things—force and mass. To find mass from force, you must divide the force in newtons by gravity, which is approximately 9.80665 m/s².
Why is gravity used in the conversion?
Gravity is used because weight (force) equals mass times gravity. This relationship allows us to convert force measurements into mass by dividing the force by gravity’s acceleration, assuming Earth’s gravity.
What happens if gravity is different from Earth’s?
If gravity varies from Earth’s 9.80665 m/s², the conversion results will differ. For example, on the Moon, gravity is weaker, so the same force would correspond to a larger mass, requiring adjustment in the calculation.
Is this conversion valid for all planets?
No, because gravity differs across planets and moons. To convert force to mass accurately elsewhere, you need the specific gravitational acceleration of that celestial body.
