How to Convert Pound per Minute to Gram per Second
- 1 lb/min = 7.559872833 g/s
- 1 g/s = 0.1322773573 lb/min
- Example: convert 15 lb/min to g/s: 15 lb/min = 15 × 7.559872833 g/s = 113.3980925 g/s
Formula
g/s = lb/min × 7.559872833333
Derivation from SI units:
- 1 lb/min = 0.45359237/60 kg/s.
- 1 g/s = 10⁻³ kg/s.
- 1 lb/min = 0.007559872833333 kg/s ÷ 0.001 kg/s per g/s = 7.559872833333 g/s
Both units are defined exactly, so the factor is exact. Pound per Minute definition: pound per minute; Gram per Second definition: gram per second.
Worked examples
- A reading of 5 lb/min converts to 37.79936417 g/s.
5 lb/min × 7.559872833 = 37.79936417 g/s - A value of 50 lb/min is 377.9936417 g/s.
50 lb/min × 7.559872833 = 377.9936417 g/s
