How to Convert Pint per second to Cubic kilometer per secondCubic kilometer per second
1 pnt/s = 4.7317647302579e-13 km3/s
1 km3/s = 2113376418750.0002 pnt/s
Example: convert 74 pnt/s to km3/s:
74 pnt/s = 74 x 4.7317647302579e-13 = 3.501505900390846e-11 km3/s
Pint per second
Definition: A pint per second (pnt/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate that measures the volume of a fluid passing through a surface per unit of time. It represents the amount of fluid volume, measured in pints, that flows every second.
History/origin: The 'pint' is a unit of volume in both the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. Its historical origins can be traced back to traditional systems of liquid measurement. The 'per second' component indicates a rate of change over time.
Current use: Pints per second is generally used in situations where relatively large volumes are being transferred quickly. This could be found in industrial pumping systems or rapid filling processes.
Cubic kilometer per second
Definition: A cubic kilometer per second (km3/s) is a unit of volumetric flow rate representing one cubic kilometer of substance passing a point in one second. It is used to measure extremely large volumes of fluid or gas flow.
History/origin: The unit combines the cubic kilometer, a very large unit of volume, with 'per second,' indicating an extremely high rate of flow. It's primarily used in geological or astrophysical contexts where vast quantities are involved.
Current use: Km3/s is used in fields such as astrophysics (e.g., measuring material ejected from celestial events), geology (e.g., estimating the volume of volcanic eruptions), and extremely large scale fluid dynamic modeling.
