What are Poundal and Attojoule

Definition of Poundal

A poundal is a unit of force within the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, commonly used in the field of engineering. It is defined as the amount of force required to accelerate a one-pound mass to one foot per second per second. This unit reflects the interplay between mass, acceleration, and force, as articulated by Newton's second law of motion.

Definition of Attojoule

The attojoule is an incredibly small unit of energy within the metric system, symbolized as aJ. It is equivalent to 10^-18 joules. The prefix 'atto' is derived from the Danish word for eighteen, reflecting its magnitude. Attojoules are used to express energy levels in microscopic phenomena, such as the energy of particles in quantum mechanics.
