What are Ton-short and Proton Mass

Definition of Ton-short

A short ton, often referred to as a ton in the United States, is a unit of weight equal to 2,000 pounds. It is commonly used in the US for measuring commodities and other items. The short ton is a part of the US customary system of measurements, distinct from the long ton used in the UK, which is 2,240 pounds.

Definition of Proton Mass

Proton mass, formally known as the unified atomic mass unit (u), is a standard unit of mass that quantifies the mass of one twelfth of the mass of an unbound neutral atom of carbon-12 at rest and in its ground state. It is a constant with a value of approximately 1.66053906660(50) x 10^-27 kilograms.
