Pound Foot per Square Second [lbf·ft/s²]

This unit represents a torque or moment of force per unit time squared (though it’s an uncommon combination and can sometimes be context-specific).

• 
  

  It combines pound-force (lbf), a unit of force, with foot (ft), a unit of length, divided by second squared (s²), a unit of time squared.

  
  
• 
  

  It may be used in dynamics or rotational mechanics when dealing with angular accelerations or rate changes of torque.

  
  
• 
  

  In basic terms:

  
  

• 
  

  Since 1 lbf ≈ 4.44822 newtons and 1 ft ≈ 0.3048 meters, this can be converted into SI units as:

  
  

• 
  

  Note: This unit is not commonly standard; usage depends on the specific physical context, like rotational dynamics.

  
  

Pond [p]

The pond is a historical unit of force, equivalent to the force exerted by gravity on a mass of one gram.

• 
  

  It is part of the gram-force system and was widely used before the adoption of the newton in the SI system.

  
  
• 
  

  Mathematically:

  
  

• 
  

  In other words, 1 pond is approximately 0.00981 newtons.

  
  
• 
  

  The pond is rarely used today, having been replaced by the newton, but it may still appear in older scientific literature or certain niche applications.

  
  
• 
  

  It is similar in concept to the gram-force (gf).
