What is a microjoule (µJ)?

A microjoule is one millionth of a joule and is used to quantify very small amounts of energy in scientific and engineering fields.

What does pound-force inch (lbf·in) represent?

Pound-force inch is a unit of energy equal to work done by a one pound-force acting through an inch displacement, often used in US customary mechanical contexts.

Why convert from microjoules to pound-force inch?

This conversion helps translate small energy values measured in SI units into US customary units for mechanical engineering and legacy data analysis.
