Factors For Unit Conversions

This document provides conversion factors between common units of measurement for various physical quantities including mass, length, volume, force, pressure, energy, and power. For each quantity, equivalent values are listed to allow conversions between metric, imperial, and other standard units of measure. For example, 1 kilogram is equivalent to 1000 grams or 2.20462 pounds, and 1 meter is equal to 100 centimeters or 39.37 inches.

APPENDIX 1
FACTORS FOR UNIT CONVERSIONS

Quantity Equivalent Values

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


1 lbm = 16 oz = 5 x 10 - 4 ton = 453.593 g = 0.453593 kg

Length 1m = 100 cm = 1000 mm = 106 microns (µm) = 1010 angstroms ( A )
= 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


= 35.3145 ft3 = 220.83 imperial gallons = 264.17 gal
= 1056.68 qt
1ft3 = 1728 in3 = 7.4805 gal = 0.028317 m3 = 28.317 liters
= 28 317 cm3

Force 1N = 1 kg.m/s2 = 105 dynes = 105 g.cm/s2 = 0.22481 lbf


1 lbf = 32.174 lbm.ft/s2 = 4.4482 N = 4.4482 x 105 dynes

Pressure 1 atm = 1.01325 x 105 N/m2 (Pa) = 101.325 kPa = 1.01325 bars
= 1.01325 x 106 dynes/cm2
= 760 mm Hg at 0°C (torr) = 10.333 m H2O at 4°C
= 14.696 lbf/in2 (psi) = 33.9 ft H2O at 4°C
= 29.921 in Hg at 0°C

Energy 1J = 1 N.m = 107 ergs = 107 dyne.cm


= 2.778 x 10-7 kW.h = 0.23901 cal
= 0.7376 ft-lbf = 9.486 x 10 - 4 Btu

Power 1W = 1 J/s = 0.23901 cal/s = 0.7376 ft.lbf/s = 9.486 x 10 - 4 Btu/s


= 1.341 x 10 - 3 hp
