foot-poundal to
cubic meter of atmosphere
step by step.
Calculation Breakdown
Set up the equation
\(1.0\left(foot-poundal\right)={\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\left(cubic \text{ } meter \text{ } of \text{ } atmosphere\right)\)
Define the base values of the selected units in relation to the SI unit \(\left(joule\right)\)
\(\text{Left side: 1.0 } \left(foot-poundal\right) = {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 4.21401100938048 \times 10^{-2}\left(joule\right)} = {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 4.21401100938048 \times 10^{-2}\left(J\right)}\)
\(\text{Right side: 1.0 } \left(cubic \text{ } meter \text{ } of \text{ } atmosphere\right) = {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 1.01325 \times 10^{-4}\left(joule\right)} = {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 1.01325 \times 10^{-4}\left(J\right)}\)
Insert known values into the conversion equation to determine \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
\(1.0\left(foot-poundal\right)={\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\left(cubic \text{ } meter \text{ } of \text{ } atmosphere\right)\)
\(\text{Insert known values } =>\)
\(1.0 \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 4.21401100938048 \times 10^{-2}} \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \left(joule\right)} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 1.01325 \times 10^{-4}}} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \left(joule\right)}\)
\(\text{Or}\)
\(1.0 \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 4.21401100938048 \times 10^{-2}} \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \left(J\right)} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \cdot {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 1.01325 \times 10^{-4}} \cdot {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \left(J\right)}\)
\(\text{Cancel SI units}\)
\(1.0 \times {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} 4.21401100938048 \times 10^{-2}} \cdot {\color{rgb(89,182,91)} \cancel{\left(J\right)}} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} 1.01325 \times 10^{-4}} \times {\color{rgb(125,164,120)} \cancel{\left(J\right)}}\)
\(\text{Conversion Equation}\)
\(4.21401100938048 \times 10^{-2} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 1.01325 \times 10^{-4}\)
Cancel factors on both sides
\(\text{Cancel factors}\)
\(4.21401100938048 \times {\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{10^{-2}}} = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 1.01325 \times {\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancelto{10^{-2}}{10^{-4}}}\)
\(\text{Simplify}\)
\(4.21401100938048 = {\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 1.01325 \times 10^{-2}\)
Switch sides
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 1.01325 \times 10^{-2} = 4.21401100938048\)
Isolate \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
Multiply both sides by \(\left(\dfrac{1.0}{1.01325 \times 10^{-2}}\right)\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times 1.01325 \times 10^{-2} \times \dfrac{1.0}{1.01325 \times 10^{-2}} = 4.21401100938048 \times \dfrac{1.0}{1.01325 \times 10^{-2}}\)
\(\text{Cancel}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} \times {\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{1.01325}} \times {\color{rgb(99,194,222)} \cancel{10^{-2}}} \times \dfrac{1.0}{{\color{rgb(255,204,153)} \cancel{1.01325}} \times {\color{rgb(99,194,222)} \cancel{10^{-2}}}} = 4.21401100938048 \times \dfrac{1.0}{1.01325 \times 10^{-2}}\)
\(\text{Simplify}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} = \dfrac{4.21401100938048}{1.01325 \times 10^{-2}}\)
Rewrite equation
\(\dfrac{1.0}{10^{-2}}\text{ can be rewritten to }10^{2}\)
\(\text{Rewrite}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x} = \dfrac{10^{2} \times 4.21401100938048}{1.01325}\)
Solve \({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\)
\({\color{rgb(20,165,174)} x}\approx415.89055114\approx4.1589 \times 10^{2}\)
\(\text{Conversion Equation}\)
\(1.0\left(foot-poundal\right)\approx{\color{rgb(20,165,174)} 4.1589 \times 10^{2}}\left(cubic \text{ } meter \text{ } of \text{ } atmosphere\right)\)
