Petagram [Pg]


The petagram is a unit of mass in the metric system, used to measure very large quantities.



  • 1 petagram = 10¹⁵ grams



  • 1 petagram = 1,000,000,000,000 kilograms (1 trillion kilograms)



  • Symbol: Pg



Key Facts:



  • Commonly used in environmental science, such as measuring global carbon emissions or biomass



  • Much larger than everyday units like kilograms or metric tons



  • Part of the SI system using the prefix "peta-" meaning 101510^{15}



The petagram is useful for quantifying massive amounts of material, especially in global-scale scientific studies.



Poundal (pdl)


The poundal (pdl) is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system of measurement. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a one-pound mass by one foot per second squared. In other words,


1 poundal = 1 lb × 1 ft/s².


The poundal is much smaller than the more commonly used pound-force (lbf). It’s mainly used in some engineering contexts and classical mechanics problems where the FPS system is preferred. However, it is less common than the SI unit of force, the newton.


Conversion:

1 poundal ≈ 0.13825 newtons.
