What are Kip and Microgram

Definition of Kip

A kip is a non-SI unit of force. It equals 1,000 pounds-force (lbf), commonly used in engineering and construction within the United States. Historically, 'kip' is a shorthand for 'kilo-pound', which indicates its relation to the pound-force. It is a convenient unit for expressing large loads or forces.

Definition of Microgram

A microgram is a metric unit of mass equal to one millionth (1/1,000,000) of a gram. It is a unit widely used in chemistry, biology, and medicine, as it allows for the precise quantification of extremely small masses. The notation for microgram is 'µg', where 'µ' is the prefix for micro in the metric system.
