  3. 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 ...

    Ampèremetre (Ammeter) A physical quantity (or simply quantity) [1] [a] is a property of a material or system that can be quantified by measurement.A physical quantity can be expressed as a value, which is the algebraic multiplication of a numerical value and a unit of measurement.

    For example, 1 m/s = 1 m / (1 s) is the coherent derived unit for velocity. [ 1 ] : 139 With the exception of the kilogram (for which the prefix kilo- is required for a coherent unit), when prefixes are used with the coherent SI units, the resulting units are no longer coherent, because the prefix introduces a numerical factor other than one.

    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.
