What are Rydberg and Foot-pound

Definition of Rydberg

The Rydberg constant represents the highest wavenumber (inverse wavelength) that can be emitted from an atom in a series of spectral lines. It is named after the Swedish physicist Johannes Rydberg and is a fundamental physical constant associated with the energy levels of an electron in a hydrogen atom.

Definition of Foot-pound

A foot-pound (ft·lb) is a unit of work or energy in the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement. It represents the amount of energy transferred when a force of one pound-force is applied over a displacement of one foot in the direction of the force.
