What are Picogram and Pound-force

Definition of Picogram

A picogram is a unit of mass equal to one trillionth (1/1,000,000,000,000) of a gram. It's symbolized as 'pg' and is a metric unit that is part of the International System of Units (SI). Due to its minute size, picograms are commonly used in scientific fields such as chemistry and biology to measure small quantities like the mass of molecules or particles.

Definition of Pound-force

Pound-force is a unit of force in the Foot-Pound-Second (FPS) system, also known as the British Engineering system. It is the force required to accelerate a one-pound mass by one foot per second squared. The symbol for pound-force is 'lbf'. It is commonly used in the United States and other countries that utilize the FPS system for various engineering and scientific applications where force measurements are required.
