What are Inch and Poundal

Definition of Inch

An inch is a unit of length in the imperial and U.S. customary systems of measurement. It is equal to 1/12 of a foot or 1/36 of a yard. One inch is equivalent to 2.54 centimeters. The inch is commonly used in the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. It is used for measuring small distances, dimensions in construction, and sizes of electronic devices, among other things. The term 'inch' is derived from the Latin word 'uncia,' meaning one-twelfth part.

Definition of Poundal

A poundal is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system of units. It is defined as the force necessary to accelerate a one-pound mass by one foot per second squared. One poundal is equivalent to approximately 0.1383 newtons. The term 'poundal' was coined by British physicist James Thomson in the 19th century, and although it has largely been replaced by the newton in scientific contexts, it is still used in some engineering applications.
