Frequently Asked Questions
- What does pound square inch measure?
- Pound square inch measures mass moment of inertia in the Imperial system, combining pound-mass with square inches to represent resistance to angular acceleration.
- Why convert pound square inch to kilogram square millimeter?
- Converting to kilogram square millimeter allows compatibility with metric and SI-based engineering tools, useful for modeling and design in mechanical systems.
- How is the kilogram square millimeter related to SI units?
- The kilogram square millimeter is connected to the SI unit by the relation 1 kg·mm² = 1×10⁻⁶ kg·m², making it a convenient metric measure for small inertia values.
Key Terminology
- Pound square inch [lb*in^2]
- A unit of mass moment of inertia in the Imperial/US customary system, calculated as pound-mass times the square of an inch, indicating resistance to angular acceleration.
- Kilogram square millimeter [kg·mm²]
- A metric derived unit measuring moment of inertia as mass multiplied by distance squared, related to the SI unit by 1 kg·mm² = 1×10⁻⁶ kg·m².
- Moment of inertia
- A measure of an object's resistance to changes in its angular velocity about an axis.
