Quarter (UK) [qr (UK)]


The quarter (UK), abbreviated as qr (UK), is a traditional British unit of weight equal to 28 pounds (about 12.7 kilograms).


It is one-quarter of the UK (imperial) hundredweight, which is 112 pounds. The quarter was commonly used in the UK for weighing agricultural products and other bulk goods.


Summary:



  • 1 UK quarter = 28 pounds (12.7 kg)



  • Equal to ¼ of the UK hundredweight (112 pounds)



  • Used historically in British trade and agriculture




It looks like you mentioned "pound-force square second per foot". This is a compound unit that can be broken down into:



  • pound-force (lbf): a unit of force



  • square second (s²): time squared



  • per foot (ft⁻¹): per unit length



What does this unit represent?


It could be a unit for something like mass or inertia-related quantities in imperial units, depending on context. For example, it might show up in equations involving force, time, and length — possibly in mechanics or engineering.




To understand or convert it:



  1. Pound-force (lbf) is a force unit, where:



1lbf=4.44822N1\, \text{lbf} = 4.44822\, \text{N}

  1. Second squared (s²) is just time squared.



  2. Foot (ft) is length:



1ft=0.3048m1\, \text{ft} = 0.3048\, \text{m}


Example usage


If you want to convert pound-force square second per foot (lbfs2/ft)(\text{lbf} \cdot \text{s}^2/\text{ft}) into SI units:


lbfs2/ftNewtons2/meter\text{lbf} \cdot \text{s}^2/\text{ft} \rightarrow \text{Newton} \cdot \text{s}^2/\text{meter}

Since


1lbf=4.44822N,1ft=0.3048m1\, \text{lbf} = 4.44822\, \text{N}, \quad 1\, \text{ft} = 0.3048\, \text{m}
1lbfs2ft=4.44822Ns20.3048m14.6Ns2m1\, \frac{\text{lbf} \cdot \text{s}^2}{\text{ft}} = \frac{4.44822\, \text{N} \cdot \text{s}^2}{0.3048\, \text{m}} \approx 14.6\, \frac{\text{N} \cdot \text{s}^2}{\text{m}}


Could you tell me more about where or how you want to use this unit? That would help me give a more specific explanation or conversion!
