TECHNICAL INFORMATION:
Conversion Factors-Volume, Mass, Length, Speed, Pressure, Temperature
Conversion Factors
Volume
1 liter = 1000 cm3 = 0.0351 ft3 =1 61.02 in3
1 ft3 = 0.02832 m3 = 28.32 liters = 7.477 gallons
1 gallon = 3.79 liters
1 cc = 0.2705 dram = 0.0338 fluid ounces
1 ounce = 29.57 cc = 8 drams
Mass
1 atomic mass unit () = 1.660 x 10-27 kg
1 slug = 14.6 kg
1 kg = 0.0685 slug
1 kg = 2.21 lb
Length
1 inch = 2.54 cm = 25.4 mm
1 mm = 0.0394 inches
1 ft = 30.5 cm = 305 mm
1 m = 39.4 in = 3.28 ft
1 mi = 5280 ft = 1609 m = 16090 cm
1 km = 0.621 mi
1 angstrom () = 10-10 m
1 light-year = 9.46 x 1015 m
Speed
1 mi/hr = 1.47 ft/s = 1.61 km/hr = 0.447 m/s
1 km/hr = 0.278 m/s = 0.621 mi/hr
1 ft/s = 0.305 m/s = 0.682 mi/hr
1 m/s = 3.28 ft/s = 3.60 km/hr
Pressure
1 atm = 1.01 bar = 1.01 x 105 N/m2 = 14.7 lb/in2 = 760 torr
1 lb/in2 = 6.90 x 103 N/m2
1 Pa = 1 N/m2 = 1.45 x 10-4 lb/in2
Temperature
Celsius to Fahrenheit
o
C x 9/5 +32 = oF
Fahrenheit to Celsius
o
F-32 x 5/9 = oC
