Unit Conversions

Unit Conversion Factors provides equivalencies for converting between different units of measurement for mass, length, volume, force, pressure, energy, power, and temperature. Some key conversions included are: 1 kg is equal to 1000 g or 2.20462 pounds; 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters or 39.37 inches; 1 liter is equal to 1000 milliliters or 0.2642 gallons; 1 newton is equal to 0.22481 pounds of force; 1 atmosphere of pressure is equal to 101,325 pascals; 1 joule is equal to 0.239 calories of energy; and temperature conversions between Celsius, Kelvin, Fahrenheit, and Rankine scales.

Quantity

Equivalent Values

Mass

1 kg = 1000 g = 0.001 metric ton = 2.20462 lbm = 35.27392 oz


1 lbm = 16 oz = 5104 ton = 453.593 g = 0.453593 kg
1 m = 100 cm = 1000 mm = 106 m = 1010
A

Length

1 m = 39.37 in = 3.2808 ft = 1.0936 yd = 0.0006214 mile


1 ft = 12 in = 1/3 yd = 0.3048 m = 30.48 cm
Volume

1 m3 = 1000 liters = 106 cm3 = 106 ml


1 m3 = 35.3145 ft3 = 220.83 imperial gallons = 264.17 gal = 1056.68 qt
1 ft3 = 1728 in3 = 7.4805 gal = 0.028317 m3 = 28.317 liters = 28317 cm3

Force

1 N = 1 kgm/s2 = 105 dynes = 105 gcm/s2 = 0.22481 lbf


1 lbf = 32.174 lbm ft/s2 = 4.4482 N

Pressure

1 atm = 1.01325105 N/m2 (Pa) = 101.325 kPa = 1.01325 bars


1 atm = 1.01325106 dynes/cm2
1 atm = 760 mmHg at 0 C (torr) = 10.333 m H2 O at 4 C = 14.696 lbf /in2 (psi)
1 atm = 33.9 ft H2 0 at 4 C = 29.921 inHg at 0 C

Energy

1 J = 1 Nm = 107 ergs = 107 dynecm = 2.778107 kWh


1 J = 0.23901 cal = 0.7376 ft-lbf = 9.486104 Btu

Power

1 W = 1 J/s = 1.341103 hp
