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.

Exagram [Eg]

The exagram is a unit of mass in the metric system, representing a very large quantity.

Key Facts:

• 
  

  Used for measuring extremely large masses, often in astrophysics or planetary science

  
  
• 
  

  Rarely used in everyday measurements due to its enormous size

  
  
• 
  

  Part of the SI (International System of Units) prefixes based on powers of ten

  
  

The exagram helps describe massive objects or quantities on a cosmic or geological scale.
