How do you convert 62.4 pounds per cubic foot to kilograms per cubic meter?

Answer 1

One cubic yard is 36 x 36 x 36 cubic inches. If it is a perfect cube, then it is sitting on a surface area of 36 x 36 = 1296 square inches. Whatever the cube weighs in pounds, it is distributing its entire weight over 1296 square inches. Therefore, to do the conversion, you must divide the weight of the cube by 1296 to get pounds / square inch.

Suppose you had a cube that weighed 12,960 pounds. Then this weight is distributed over 1296 square inches. The conversion is:

12,960 pounds divided by 1296 square inches is 10 pounds of weight per square inch.

If you think that is heavy, the weight of the atmosphere on your body is approximately 14 pounds per square inch.

Answer 2

Conversions: 1 pound per cubic foot = 16.0184634 kg/m3 and 1 kg/m3 = 0.0624279605 pounds per cubic foot.

Density of water: 62.4 lb per cubic foot = 999.55 kg/m3.

The density of water varies somewhat with temperature and pressure, and is higher for salt water than fresh water.

Answer 3

(62.4 lb/ft3) x (3.28084 ft/meter)3 / (2.20462 lb/kg) = 999.5534 kg/m3 .

(If you use 62.4279 instead of 62.4, you get 1,000.00032 . 1 m3 = 1,000 liters .)

Answer 4

42.4 lb/ft3 is the density of some substance at some pressure and some temperature.

Answer 5

You can't convert cubic to squared without additional information

Answer 6

kg / cubic metre * 0.062428 = pounds / cubic foot

>

so : 10 kg / cubic metre * 0.06248 = 0.6248 pounds / cubic foot

Answer 7

1 kg = 2.2 lb

62.1*2.2=136.62 lb
