Full precision:47.8803 Pa
Step-by-Step Solution
To convert 1 psf to pascals, we multiply by 47.8803 because one pound per square foot equals exactly 47.8803 pascals.
1 pound per square foot = 47.8803 pascals
Since each pound per square foot contains 47.8803 pascals, we multiply our value by this factor:
1 × 47.8803 = 47.8803 pascals
So 1 psf = 47.8803 pascals.
Quick check: 47.8803 ÷ 47.8803 = 1 psf
Example Conversions
Example 1: 1 psf = 47.8803 Pa
1 × 47.8803 = 47.8803
1 × 47.8803 = 47.8803
Example 2: 5 psf = 239.401 Pa
5 × 47.8803 = 239.401
5 × 47.8803 = 239.401
Example 3: 10 psf = 478.803 Pa
10 × 47.8803 = 478.803
10 × 47.8803 = 478.803
