What are Kilopound and Decigram

Definition of Kilopound

A kilopound (kp) is a unit of mass equal to 1,000 pounds. Commonly used in engineering and high-level physics, it allows for an easier expression of large quantities of weight without resorting to excessive digits. One kilopound is equivalent to 453,592.37 grams or 0.45359237 metric tons, providing a bridge between imperial and metric systems.

Definition of Decigram

A decigram is a metric unit of mass that is one-tenth of a gram. It is not commonly used in everyday applications but is valuable in scientific fields that require precise weight measurements with finer granularity. One decigram is 100 milligrams or 0.0001 kilograms, showcasing its role in a system that scales by factors of ten.
