Convert calorie to inch-pound force

Learn how to convert 1 calorie to inch-pound force step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (c a l o r i e) = x (i n c h - p o u n d f o r c e)

Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit

(j o u l e)

Left side: 1.0 (c a l o r i e) = 4.1868 (j o u l e) = 4.1868 (J)

Right side: 1.0 (i n c h - p o u n d f o r c e) = 0.112984829027617 (j o u l e) = 0.112984829027617 (J)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (c a l o r i e) = x (i n c h - p o u n d f o r c e)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 4.1868 \times (j o u l e) = x \times 0.112984829027617 \times (j o u l e)

Or

1.0 \cdot 4.1868 \cdot (J) = x \cdot 0.112984829027617 \cdot (J)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 4.1868 \cdot (J) = x \times 0.112984829027617 \times (J)

Conversion Equation

4.1868 = x \times 0.112984829027617

Switch sides

x \times 0.112984829027617 = 4.1868

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{0.112984829027617})

x \times 0.112984829027617 \times \frac{1.0}{0.112984829027617} = 4.1868 \times \frac{1.0}{0.112984829027617}

Cancel

x \times 0.112984829027617 \times \frac{1.0}{0.112984829027617} = 4.1868 \times \frac{1.0}{0.112984829027617}

Simplify

x = \frac{4.1868}{0.112984829027617}

Solve

x

x \approx 37.056302479 \approx 37.0563

Conversion Equation

1.0 (c a l o r i e) \approx 37.0563 (i n c h - p o u n d f o r c e)
