Wikipedia

  1. slinch

    The slug is a derived unit of mass in a weight-based system of measures, most notably within the British Imperial measurement system and the United States customary measures system. Systems of measure either define mass and derive a force unit or define a base force and derive a mass unit (cf. poundal, a derived unit of force in a force-based system). A slug is defined as the mass that is accelerated by 1 ft/s2 when a net force of one pound (lbf) is exerted on it. 1 slug = 1 lbf ⋅ s 2 ft ⟺ 1 lbf = 1 slug ⋅ ft s 2 {\displaystyle 1~{\text{slug}}=1~{\text{lbf}}{\cdot }{\frac {{\text{s}}^{2}}{\text{ft}}}\quad \Longleftrightarrow \quad 1~{\text{lbf}}=1~{\text{slug}}{\cdot }{\frac {\text{ft}}{{\text{s}}^{2}}}} One slug is a mass equal to 32.1740 lb (14.59390 kg) based on standard gravity, the international foot, and the avoirdupois pound. At the Earth's surface, an object with a mass of 1 slug weighs approximately 32.2 lbf or 143 N.
