Pound Foot per Square Second
Pound foot per square second is a unit used to describe force in the FPS system. It is sometimes used in older engineering contexts or for specialized calculations.
Poundals
A poundal (pdl) is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, equal to about 0.138 newtons. It is used in some engineering and physics applications to measure force in non-SI units.
