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.

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
Fundamental property of the electron in physics
