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.
Pound Per Square Inch (abbreviations: psi, or lb/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.
How to Convert Kilograms Per Centimeters Cube to Pounds Per Square Inches
Example: How many pounds per square inches are equivalent to 0.92 kilograms per centimeters cube?
As;
1 kilograms per centimeters cube = 14.223104056437 pounds per square inches
0.92 kilograms per centimeters cube = Y pounds per square inches
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 0.92 times 14.223104056437 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 0.92 * 14.223104056437 / 1 = 13.085255731922 pounds per square inches
Answer is: 13.085255731922 pounds per square inches are equivalent to 0.92 kilograms per centimeters cube.
