What does one ton (short) per cubic yard represent?

It is a density unit describing mass as one short ton (2,000 pounds) spread across one cubic yard volume, commonly used in construction and earthmoving.

When is kilogram per cubic centimeter used?

This unit is mainly utilized for very high density measurements in scientific research such as astrophysics and high-pressure material studies.

Is this converter suitable for everyday materials?

Not typically; kilogram per cubic centimeter is uncommon for day-to-day use where grams per cubic centimeter or kilograms per cubic meter are preferred.
