pound per square inch to newton per square centimeter
Please provide values below to convert pound per square inch [psi] to newton per square centimeter [N/cm^2], or change ↔.
pound per square inch [psi]
Definition: An imperial unit of pressure, representing the force in pounds applied to one square inch of area.
Historyandorigin: The psi unit has been used since the 19th century in the United States and the UK, particularly for mechanical and industrial applications.
CurrentUse: Common in the U.S. for measuring tire pressure, water pressure, and other mechanical systems.
funfact: Tire pressures are typically measured in psi, and most cars have tires inflated between 30-35 psi!
newton per square centimeter [N/cm^2]
Definition: A unit of pressure, equivalent to the force of one newton applied over an area of one square centimeter.
Historyandorigin: This is a derived unit of pressure, commonly used in material science and engineering applications.
CurrentUse: Used to measure the pressure on smaller scales, such as in testing the strength of materials.
funfact: This unit is used in laboratory settings to study the pressure exerted on small objects or surfaces!
