how many pixels is 5 inches?

Answer 1

there is not a set amount of pixels in 5 inches.

the amount of pixels per inch is determined on the resolution (quality) of the image, not a physical size.

to quote:
'a square is 200 pixels by 200 pixels. to determine a monitor's PPI, measure the width and height, in inches, of the square as displayed on a given monitor. dividing 200 by the measured width or height gives the monitor's horizontal or vertical PPI, respectively, at the current screen resolution.'

Answer 2

It depends on the resolution dots per inch.
For example a square or rectangle has two side measurements x & y axis, if you multiply the two together you have the pixels per inch.
i.e x=200 y=300 so pixels per inch=60000.
In this case your pixels for 5 inches would be 300000, threehundred thousand

Answer 3

It depends on the DPI (dots per inch). Display resolution is 72 DPI (which would be 442 pixels) - but printed media is typically 300 DPI (1500 'pixels' - though pixels make less sense in this media), though most printers can handle double this resolution, and scanners typically see in 4-6 times this resolution.

Answer 4

That depends on how many dots per inch:
Web = 96 DPI
Print = 150 DPI
Photographic = 300
