Pound-Force [lbf]

Pound-force (lbf) is a unit of force commonly used in the United States and some other countries using the Imperial system.

It is defined as the force exerted by gravity on a mass of one pound (lb) under standard Earth gravity.
Mathematically:

1 \text{ lbf} = 1 \text{ lb} \times 9.80665 \text{ m/s}^2 \approx 4.44822 \text{ newtons}

Pound-force is widely used in engineering, mechanics, and everyday contexts in countries that use Imperial or US customary units.
It measures force similarly to how newtons do in the metric system but based on pounds instead of kilograms.

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:

1 \text{ lbf·ft/s}^2 = \text{force} \times \text{distance} \div \text{time}^2

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

1 \text{ lbf·ft/s}^2 \approx 1.35582 \text{ N·m/s}^2

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