Question

Convert his 1000kg/m^2 to lb/ft^2 use 1ft = 0.305m 1 lb=0.4536 kg

Answer 1

1000 kg/m² ≡ 205.08 lb/ft²

Explanation:

We have 1 lb = 0.4536 kg and 1 foot = 0.305 m.

So, 1 lb/ft² =
`(0.4536)/((0.305)^(2) )` kg/m²

{Putting the respective values of 1 lb in kg and 1 foot in meter}

⇒ 1 lb/ft² ≡ 4.876 kg/m²

Now, we have to find 1000 kg/m² is equal to how much lb/ft²

So, 1000 kg/m² ≡
`(1000)/(4.876)` lb/ft²

⇒ 1000 kg/m² ≡ 205.08 lb/ft² (Answer)
