To convert from kilopound per square inch (ksi) to megapascal (MPa), use the following formula:
megapascal (MPa)
=0.000145037680781×10001× kilopound per square inch (ksi)
=6.8947600004501395751× kilopound per square inch (ksi)
With 0.000145037680781 is the ratio between the base units kilopascal (kPa) and kilopound per square inch (ksi).
Let's convert 5 kilopound per square inch (ksi) to megapascal (MPa).
Using the formula:
5×6.8947600004501395751=34.473800002250697876
Therefore, 5 kilopound per square inch (ksi) is equal to 34.473800002250697876 megapascal (MPa).
A kilopound per square inch (ksi) is a base unit of pressure in the imperial system. The plural form is kilopound per square inch.
A megapascal (MPa) is a unit of pressure in the metric system, equal to one thousand kilopascals (1000 kPa). The plural form is megapascals.
The imperial system is a system of measurement that was first defined in the British Weights and Measures Act of 1824. It's known for using units like inches, feet, pounds, and gallons. While most of the world now uses the metric system, the imperial system remains the official system of measurement in the United States and is still used in specific contexts in other countries, such as the United Kingdom and Canada.
The metric system is a decimal-based system of measurement used by nearly every country in the world. Its key feature is the use of prefixes to denote multiples and submultiples of the base units by powers of ten.
