Avoirdupois is a system of mass based on a pound of 16 ounces, while Troy weight is the system of mass where 12 troy ounces equals one troy pound. The symbol g 0 is used to denote standard gravity in order to avoid confusion with the (upright) g symbol for gram.
The constants listed here are known values of physical constants expressed in SI units; that is, physical quantities that are generally believed to be universal in nature and thus are independent of the unit system in which they are measured.
joule per kilogram per kelvin (J⋅kg −1 ⋅K −1) viscous damping coefficient kilogram per second (kg/s) electric displacement field also called the electric flux density coulomb per square meter (C/m 2) density: kilogram per cubic meter (kg/m 3) diameter: meter (m) distance: meter (m) direction
The poundal is defined as the force necessary to accelerate an object of one-pound mass at 1 ft/s 2, and is equivalent to about 1/32.2 of a pound-force. The slug is defined as the amount of mass that accelerates at 1 ft/s 2 when one pound-force is exerted on it, and is equivalent to about 32.2 pounds (mass).
An overview of ranges of mass. To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following lists describe various mass levels between 10 −67 kg and 10 52 kg. The least massive thing listed here is a graviton, and the most massive thing is the observable universe.

The International Committee for Weights and Measures (CIPM) approved a revision in November 2018 that defines the kilogram by defining the Planck constant to be exactly 6.626 070 15 × 10 −34 kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −1, effectively defining the kilogram in terms of the second and the metre. The new definition took effect on 20 May 2019.
