How to Convert Pounds Per Square Feet to Atmospheres
Example: How many Atmospheres are equivalent to 92.08 pounds per square feet?
As;
1 pounds per square feet = 0.00047267423142553 Atmospheres
92.08 pounds per square feet = Y Atmospheres
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 92.08 times 0.00047267423142553 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 92.08 * 0.00047267423142553 / 1 = 0.043523843229663 Atmospheres
Answer is: 0.043523843229663 Atmospheres are equivalent to 92.08 pounds per square feet.
