No, not directly. Pounds per square inch, or PSI, refers to pressure. PSI can refer to the air pressure inside a bike tire or a balloon as it presses outward, or it can refer to the pressure of an object resting on a table or other surface. In the second case, and object weighing 100 lbs, and an object weighing 10 lbs, can have the same PSI, depending on surface area.
No it is not metric unit. It is foot-pound-sec unit. Psi is pound per square inch.
divide by 27 = 1.185
psi is equal to psig...if psi is in the pressure gauge or psig..on a gauge
NONE of these is a metric unit:-- inch, foot, yard, mile-- square inch, square foot, square yard, square mile, acre-- ounce, pound, ton-- fluid ounce, cup, pint, quart, gallon
Well, if you can imagaine that weight of 1,600 elephants on every square cm of your body. That's the pressure on your body.
One pound per square inch is a unit of measure for pressure. It is equal to the pressure of one pound of weight against gravity resting against an object with the surface area of one square inch.
The "p" in "psi" is pounds. If you are asking what weight would produce a pressure of 560 pounds per square inch, then it depends on what area that weight is on. A 560 pound weight on an area of 1 square inch would produce a pressure of 560 psi A 1120 pound weight on an area of 2 square inches would also produce a pressure of 560 psi.
kjhh pound is a unit of weight as inch is a unit of length
14.7 pound per square inch
15lbs of weight on a square surface 1 inch wide & 1 inch long.
There is no such thing as a 'cubic square inch'. The density of aluminum is 0.0858 pound per cubic inch. (rounded)
"Psi" says the formula. The pound per square inch or, more accurately, pound-force per square inch - symbol: psi or lbf/in2 or lbf/in2 - is a unit of pressure or of stress based on avoirdupois units. It is the pressure resulting from a force of one pound-force applied to an area of one square inch. 1 pound per square inch = 6 894.75729 pascals Pascal (Pa) is the SI unit of pressure.
About 1/2 pound.
pound per square inch gauge
1 pound-force per square inch equals 6.89476 kilopascals
Psi stands for pound per square inch. This system is used to measure pressure. 1 Psi is equal to 1 pound of force on an area of 1 square inch.
