Pound Per Cubic Foot (abbreviations: lb/ft3, or ppf3): is a unit of density, defined by mass in pound divided by volume in cubic foot
Newton Per Cubic Meter (abbreviations: N/m3, or Npm3): is an SI derived unit of density, defined by mass in newton divided by volume in cubic meter
How to Convert Pounds Per Cubic Feet to Newton Per Cubic Meters
Example: How many newton per cubic meters are equivalent to 3.69 pounds per cubic feet?
As;
1 pounds per cubic feet = 157.08657306188 newton per cubic meters
3.69 pounds per cubic feet = Y newton per cubic meters
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 3.69 times 157.08657306188 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 3.69 * 157.08657306188 / 1 = 579.64945459833 newton per cubic meters
Answer is: 579.64945459833 newton per cubic meters are equivalent to 3.69 pounds per cubic feet.
