slug/foot/second to centipoise
Please provide values below to convert slug/foot/second [slug/ft·s] to centipoise [cP], or change ↔.
slug/foot/second [slug/ft·s]
Definition: A unit of viscosity, related to the slug, the unit of mass in the imperial system.
Historyandorigin: Part of the British Imperial system, used primarily in the U.S. and Great Britain for calculating viscosity.
CurrentUse: Used in certain engineering and mechanical fields, especially in the measurement of fluids in large-scale systems.
funfact: The slug is a unique unit that is seldom used in everyday life but is essential for specific applications in fluid dynamics!
centipoise [cP]
Definition: The centipoise is one one-hundredth of a poise and is commonly used to measure the viscosity of liquids.
Historyandorigin: Derived from the poise, it is more practical for measuring the viscosity of common fluids like water and oil.
CurrentUse: The centipoise is frequently used in industries like lubrication, cosmetics, and food science, where it is easier to work with than the larger poise unit.
funfact: Water has a viscosity of about 1 centipoise at 20°C—making it a useful baseline for viscosity measurements!

How to Convert slug/foot/second to centipoise
1 slug/foot/second [slug/ft·s] = 0.4788025898 centipoise [cP]
1 centipoise [cP] = 2.0885434233 slug/foot/second [slug/ft·s]
we use cross multiplication method
slug/foot/second [slug/ft·s] → centipoise [cP]
1 → 0.4788025898
1.5 → ?( suppose x)
=>1.5*0.4788025898=1*x
by simplifying
x=0.7182038847
