Ton-Force (Long) [tonf (UK)]

The long ton-force (also called the UK ton-force) is a unit of force based on the long ton, traditionally used in the United Kingdom.

A long ton equals 2,240 pounds (lbs).
The long ton-force is the force exerted by a long ton mass under standard gravity.
Mathematically:

1 \text{ tonf (UK)} = 2,240 \text{ lbs} \times 9.80665 \text{ m/s}^2 \approx 9,964.02 \text{ newtons}

It is used in engineering and industries where the long ton is the standard measure of mass.
This unit is larger than the short ton-force and differs from the metric ton-force.

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.
