Kilogram Per Centimeter Cube (abbreviations: kg/cm2, or kgpcm2): is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength interms of kilogram per centimeter cube.
Kilopound Per Square Inch (abbreviations: ksi, or kips/in2): is a unit of pressure or of stress based on avoirdupois units. It is the pressure resulting from a force of one kilopound-force applied to an area of one square inch.
How to Convert Kilograms Per Centimeters Cube to Kilopounds Per Square Inches
Example: How many kilopounds per square inches are equivalent to 21.6 kilograms per centimeters cube?
As;
1 kilograms per centimeters cube = 0.014223104056437 kilopounds per square inches
21.6 kilograms per centimeters cube = Y kilopounds per square inches
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 21.6 times 0.014223104056437 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 21.6 * 0.014223104056437 / 1 = 0.30721904761905 kilopounds per square inches
Answer is: 0.30721904761905 kilopounds per square inches are equivalent to 21.6 kilograms per centimeters cube.
