pound-force per square inch to newton per square meter
Please provide values below to convert pound-force per square inch [psi] to newton per square meter [N/m^2], or change ↔.
pound-force per square inch [psi]
Definition: A unit of pressure commonly used in the United States, equal to the pressure produced by a one-pound force applied to an area of one square inch.
Historyandorigin: The pound-force per square inch has been a traditional unit of pressure in the imperial system for centuries.
CurrentUse: Widely used in the U.S. for tire pressure, hydraulic systems, and HVAC systems.
funfact: Many car tire pressures are specified in psi, making it a commonly recognized unit for everyday use!
newton per square meter [N/m^2]
Definition: A unit of pressure, equivalent to one pascal (1 N/m^2 = 1 Pa).
Historyandorigin: This unit is based on Newton's second law of motion, where force is applied over an area.
CurrentUse: Used in scientific and engineering contexts for precise pressure measurements, particularly in the study of fluids and gases.
funfact: The newton per square meter is another way to express pressure, often interchangeable with pascals!

How to Convert pound-force per square inch to newton per square meter
1 pound-force per square inch [psi] = 0.0001450377 newton per square meter [N/m^2]
1 newton per square meter [N/m^2] = 6894.7572932 pound-force per square inch [psi]
we use cross multiplication method
pound-force per square inch [psi] → newton per square meter [N/m^2]
1 → 0.0001450377
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.0001450377=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.0002175566
