What are Electron-volt and Inch-pound

An electron-volt (eV) is a unit of energy commonly used in the field of atomic and particle physics. It is equal to the amount of kinetic energy gained by a single electron when it accelerates through an electric potential difference of one volt. In other terms, it's 1.602 x 10^-19 joules, offering a convenient scale for energy levels on atomic scales.

An inch-pound (in-lb) is a unit of torque in the imperial system. It represents the torque generated by a one-pound force acting on a lever one inch from the pivot point. This measure is critical in engineering for calculating rotational forces, ensuring mechanical components can withstand applied stresses.
