What is the US standard for mass?

In the US system one pound weight is 1/32.17 ft/sec^2 = 0.031 slugs. The slug is the mass unit. Thus 1 slug mass = 32.17 pounds weight. The value 32.17 is the acceleration of gravity in ft/sec/sec


Is force measured in kilograms?

No, kilograms are mass units. The SI unit of force is the newton; a newton is a kilogram-meter per second per second.That means that under standard Earth gravity, a 1 kg mass weighs ... is attracted towards the Earth with a force of ... about 9.8 N.One thing that's a little confusing about "the metric system" for some people is that pounds are a unit of force (weight) but kilograms are a unit of mass. The US unit for mass is an uncommon one (it's called a "slug"). A slug is the amount of mass that can be accelerated at one foot per second per second by a force of 1 pound; to put it another way, on the surface of the Earth, 1 slug of mass has a weight of about 32 pounds.

The mass of an apple in pounds?

"Pound" is a unit of force. It's not a unit of mass. The mass of an apple depends on the individual apple. If it weighs, say, 8 ounces on Earth, then its mass is 0.5 poundmass, or 0.015625 slug.


What is the largest unit of mass?

There is no largest unit. -- In the SI (metric) system, there's only one unit of mass. It's called the kilogram, and people who need to work with larger units just add other prefixes, like milli-, micro-, nano-, mega, giga-, etc. to indicate larger or smaller multiples of grams, in factors of 1,000. -- In the Burmese, Liberian, and US Customary system, there are several different units of mass. The biggest one I know of is the 'Slug'. That's the amount of mass that accelerates at the rate of 1 foot/second2 when you push on it with a force of one pound-force. You can always spot a Slug on Earth, because it weighs 32.2 pounds.

What common measure does newton convert to?

A Newton is the amount of force exerted on one kg of mass at one standard gravity. The common measurement is the pound, which is the pull of the earth on 1 pound of matter. 1 N ≈ 0.225 pound
