Mathematical Conversion Derivation via Coherent SI Base Unit

Under the International System of Quantities (ISQ), dimensional conversion between non-SI units is rigorously resolved by bridging through the coherent SI base unit (joule (J)) without arbitrary rounding:

Vtarget=Vsource×(ksource→SIktarget→SI)V_{\text{target}} = V_{\text{source}} \times \left( \frac{k_{\text{source} \to \text{SI}}}{k_{\text{target} \to \text{SI}}} \right)
Universal Dimensional Conversion Law (ISO 80000 / NIST SP 811)
1. Source SI Bridge (ksource):1 kgf·m = 9.806652 joule (J)
2. Target SI Bridge (ktarget):1 nJ = 1 × 10⁻⁹ joule (J)
Step-by-step substitution for Kilogram-force Meter → Nanojoule:V(nJ) = V(kgf·m) × ( 9.806652 / 1 × 10⁻⁹ ) = V(kgf·m) × 9.806652 × 10⁹
