  2. Pound (force) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pound_(force)

    The pound-force is the product of one avoirdupois pound (exactly 0.45359237 kg) and the standard acceleration due to gravity, approximately 32.174049 ft/s 2 (9.80665 m/s 2). [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] The standard values of acceleration of the standard gravitational field ( g n ) and the international avoirdupois pound (lb) result in a pound-force equal ...

    The conversion for the poundal is given by 1 pdl = 1 lb·ft/s 2 = 0.138 254 954 376 N (precisely). [1] To convert between the absolute and gravitational FPS systems one needs to fix the standard acceleration g which relates the pound to the pound-force. [citation needed] =

  5. Slug (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slug_(unit)

    Systems of measure either define mass and derive a force unit or define a base force and derive a mass unit [1] (cf. poundal, a derived unit of force in a mass-based system). A slug is defined as a mass that is accelerated by 1 ft/s 2 when a net force of one pound (lbf) is exerted on it.
