lumen/square foot to centimeter-candle
Please provide values below to convert lumen/square foot [lm/ft^2] to centimeter-candle [cm*c], or change ↔.
lumen/square foot [lm/ft^2]
Definition: A unit of illuminance, measuring the amount of luminous flux (in lumens) distributed over one square foot of surface area.
Historyandorigin: It is part of the imperial measurement system and was used in the United States before the metric system became more widely adopted.
CurrentUse: It is still used in some industries in the U.S. and is roughly equivalent to 10.764 lux.
funfact: The lumen per square foot is useful for understanding light levels in spaces like offices and schools where the imperial system is still in use.
centimeter-candle [cm*c]
Definition: A historical unit of illuminance, measuring the light falling on one square centimeter from a source of one candle power at a distance of one centimeter.
Historyandorigin: This unit was used in early photometry systems to measure light intensity across small areas, similar to the meter-candle.
CurrentUse: It has been replaced by more standardized units like lux and is no longer commonly used.
funfact: The centimeter-candle was often used in laboratories and early experiments in photometry to measure light intensity over small distances.

How to Convert lumen/square foot to centimeter-candle
1 lumen/square foot [lm/ft^2] = 0.001076391 centimeter-candle [cm*c]
1 centimeter-candle [cm*c] = 929.0304 lumen/square foot [lm/ft^2]
we use cross multiplication method
lumen/square foot [lm/ft^2] → centimeter-candle [cm*c]
1 → 0.001076391
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.001076391=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0016145866
