Frequently Asked Questions

What does kilogram square centimeter measure?
It measures rotational inertia by representing the product of mass in kilograms and the square of a distance in centimeters, indicating resistance to angular acceleration.

Why convert to pound-force foot sq. second?
Converting to pound-force foot sq. second allows engineers to analyze and model rotational inertia using US customary units common in automotive and mechanical engineering.

Can this conversion be used for large-scale systems?
Since kilogram square centimeter is optimized for small-scale components, caution is advised for larger systems where imperial units and higher precision are required.

Key Terminology

Kilogram Square Centimeter (kg·cm²)
A unit of moment of inertia representing a mass of one kilogram multiplied by the square of one centimeter; useful for describing resistance to angular acceleration in small-scale systems.
Pound-force Foot Sq. Second (lbf·ft·s²)
A US customary unit of rotational inertia equivalent to one slug·foot squared, expressing resistance to angular acceleration in imperial units.
Moment of Inertia
A measure of an object's resistance to changes in its rotation, depending on mass distribution relative to the axis of rotation.
