Welcome to the Rydberg Constant to Poundal Foot Converter, developed by Newtum. This specialized tool makes unit conversion simple and accurate, sparking your curiosity about the fundamental constants of physics and their practical applications in various fields.

What are Rydberg and Poundal

Definition of Rydberg

The Rydberg constant represents the highest wavenumber (inverse wavelength) that can be emitted from an atom. It is a fundamental physical constant associated with atomic spectra, denoted by the symbol R∞ for heavy atoms or R_H for hydrogen. The value of the Rydberg constant is approximately 10,973,731.56816 m⁻¹, and it plays a key role in the Rydberg formula, which predicts the wavelengths of photons emitted during electron transitions between energy levels in a hydrogen atom.

Definition of Poundal

The poundal is a unit of force within the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, commonly used in some fields of engineering and physics in the United States. One poundal is defined as the force required to accelerate a one-pound mass at a rate of one foot per second squared. It is equivalent to approximately 0.138255 Newtons in the International System of Units (SI). The use of the poundal helps distinguish force from mass in the FPS system, where the force unit pound-force and mass unit pound can often be confused.
