What are Poundal and Kiloelectron-volt

Definition of Poundal

A poundal is a unit of force within the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, also known as the Imperial system. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a one-pound mass to one foot per second squared. This unit reflects the interplay between mass, acceleration, and force, following Newton's second law of motion.

Definition of Kiloelectron-volt

A kiloelectron-volt (keV) is a unit of energy commonly used in the fields of particle physics and electromagnetism. It is equivalent to 1,000 electron-volts (eV) and measures the energy gained by an electron when it is accelerated through an electric potential difference of one kilovolt.
