What are Poundal and Microjoule

Definition of Poundal

A poundal is a unit of force within the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, predominantly used in the United States. It is defined as the force required to accelerate a one-pound mass to one foot per second squared. This unit provides a measure of force distinct from the pound-force, which is part of the gravitational FPS system.

Definition of Microjoule

A microjoule is a unit of energy in the International System of Units (SI), representing one millionth of a joule. It's a measure of work done when a force of one newton displaces an object by one meter. In practical terms, microjoules are used to quantify very small amounts of energy, such as that used by microscopic or electronic devices.
