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.

Quadrans (Biblical Roman)

The quadrans was a small Roman bronze coin used during the Roman Empire, including the Biblical era. It was worth one-quarter of an as and served as one of the lowest denominations in Roman currency.

The quadrans was commonly used for everyday small purchases and minor transactions. Its low value made it accessible to ordinary people for daily needs.

Though rarely mentioned explicitly in the Bible, the quadrans was part of the coinage system during the time of Jesus and the Roman occupation.

Summary:

Roman bronze coin worth ¼ of an as
Used for small, everyday transactions
Part of the Roman currency system in Biblical times
