Frequently Asked Questions
- What does pound square inch [lb*in^2] measure?
- It measures mass moment of inertia using pound-mass times the square of an inch, indicating resistance to angular acceleration.
- Why convert to kilogram square centimeter?
- Converting to kilogram square centimeter allows use of metric units common in mechanical and robotics design, easing comparisons and calculations.
- Is kilogram square centimeter an SI unit?
- No, kilogram square centimeter is a non-SI convenience unit and needs conversion to SI units like kg·m² for formal scientific work.
Key Terminology
- Pound square inch [lb*in^2]
- A unit of mass moment of inertia in the Imperial system, calculated as pound-mass times square inch.
- Kilogram square centimeter [kg·cm²]
- A metric unit of moment of inertia equal to kilogram times centimeter squared; a non-SI convenience unit.
- Moment of inertia
- A property that quantifies an object's resistance to angular acceleration about an axis.
