Convert pound-force / square meter to foot of mercury

Learn how to convert 1 pound-force / square meter to foot of mercury step by step.

Calculation Breakdown

Set up the equation

1.0 (\frac{p o u n d - f o r c e}{s q u a r e m e t e r}) = x (f o o t o f m e r c u r y)

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

(p a s c a l)

Left side: 1.0 (\frac{p o u n d - f o r c e}{s q u a r e m e t e r}) = 4.4482216152605 (p a s c a l) = 4.4482216152605 (P a)

Right side: 1.0 (f o o t o f m e r c u r y) = 40636.663684092 (p a s c a l) = 40636.663684092 (P a)

Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine

x

1.0 (\frac{p o u n d - f o r c e}{s q u a r e m e t e r}) = x (f o o t o f m e r c u r y)

Insert known values =>

1.0 \times 4.4482216152605 \times (p a s c a l) = x \times 40636.663684092 \times (p a s c a l)

Or

1.0 \cdot 4.4482216152605 \cdot (P a) = x \cdot 40636.663684092 \cdot (P a)

Cancel SI units

1.0 \times 4.4482216152605 \cdot (P a) = x \times 40636.663684092 \times (P a)

Conversion Equation

4.4482216152605 = x \times 40636.663684092

Switch sides

x \times 40636.663684092 = 4.4482216152605

Isolate

x

Multiply both sides by

(\frac{1.0}{40636.663684092})

x \times 40636.663684092 \times \frac{1.0}{40636.663684092} = 4.4482216152605 \times \frac{1.0}{40636.663684092}

Cancel

x \times 40636.663684092 \times \frac{1.0}{40636.663684092} = 4.4482216152605 \times \frac{1.0}{40636.663684092}

Simplify

x = \frac{4.4482216152605}{40636.663684092}

Solve

x

x \approx 0.0001094633 \approx 1.0946 \times 10^{- 4}

Conversion Equation

1.0 (\frac{p o u n d - f o r c e}{s q u a r e m e t e r}) \approx 1.0946 \times 10^{- 4} (f o o t o f m e r c u r y)
