What are Kilogram and Ton

Definition of Kilogram

A kilogram is a base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI), symbolized as kg. Defined initially in 1795, it was based on a platinum-iridium cylinder stored in France. However, in 2019, the kilogram's definition shifted to rely on the Planck constant, reflecting a fundamental constant of nature. This change ensures precision and accuracy in scientific measurements worldwide. The kilogram is widely used globally for quantifying mass in everyday life, scientific research, and various industries, making it a vital component in the metric system.

Definition of Ton

A ton, or tonne, is a unit of mass commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom. In the United States, the short ton equals 2,000 pounds, while the long ton, used in the UK, measures 2,240 pounds. Derived from the word 'tun,' a large wine cask, the ton has historical roots in trade and shipping. The metric ton, or tonne, equals 1,000 kilograms and is used extensively worldwide in scientific and industrial contexts. These variations highlight the ton's versatility in different global systems of measurement.
