Frequently Asked Questions

What does pound square foot measure?
Pound square foot measures the mass moment of inertia using a mass in pounds multiplied by the square of a distance in feet, indicating resistance to angular acceleration.

When is ounce-force inch square second used?
It specifies moment of inertia for very small rotors or precision instruments, involving an ounce-force multiplied by inch and second squared.

Why is unit consistency important in this conversion?
Because pound-mass and pound-force differ, proper unit consistency ensures correct interpretation and calculation when converting between these units.

Key Terminology

Pound square foot [lb*ft^2]
An English Engineering unit of mass moment of inertia equal to a mass in pounds times the square of a distance in feet, used to measure resistance to angular acceleration.
Ounce-force inch sq. second
An imperial unit of moment of inertia representing an ounce-force multiplied by an inch and by a second squared, measuring resistance to angular acceleration.
Moment of inertia
A measure of an object's resistance to angular acceleration, dependent on mass distribution relative to an axis of rotation.
