Tonne Per Meter Cube (abbreviations: t/m2, or tpm2): is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength interms of tonne per meter 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 Tonnes Per Meters Cube to Pounds Per Square Inches
Example: How many pounds per square inches are equivalent to 17.28 tonnes per meters cube?
As;
1 tonnes per meters cube = 1.45038 pounds per square inches
17.28 tonnes per meters cube = Y pounds per square inches
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 17.28 times 1.45038 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 17.28 * 1.45038 / 1 = 25.0625664 pounds per square inches
Answer is: 25.0625664 pounds per square inches are equivalent to 17.28 tonnes per meters cube.
