Kilopound [kip]

The kilopound, commonly abbreviated as kip, is a unit of force used primarily in the United States in engineering and construction.

• 
  

  1 kip = 1,000 pounds-force (lbf)

  
  
• 
  

  Equivalent to approximately 4,448.22 newtons (N)

  
  
• 
  

  Used to measure large forces, such as loads on structures or machinery.

  
  

Key Facts:

• 
  

  1 kip = 1,000 lbf

  
  
• 
  

  Convenient for expressing large forces without writing many zeros

  
  
• 
  

  Commonly used in civil and structural engineering, especially in the U.S.

  
  

The kip simplifies communication and calculation of large forces in engineering projects.

Electron Mass (Rest)

The rest mass of an electron is the intrinsic mass of an electron when it is at rest (not moving relative to an observer).

Its value is approximately 9.109 × 10⁻³¹ kilograms (or about 0.511 MeV/c² in energy units).

This tiny mass is fundamental to atomic and particle physics, influencing how electrons behave in atoms and electric currents.

Summary:

• 
  

  Rest mass ≈ 9.109 × 10⁻³¹ kg

  
  
• 
  

  Equivalent to about 0.511 MeV/c²
