  2. Dimensional weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensional_weight

    The 35.1 pounds is the 'theoretical" weight of the package if it had a density of 166 in 3 /lb or 10.4 lb/ft 3: (18 × 18 × 18) = 3.375 ft 3 × 10.4 lb/ft 3 = 35.1 lb. Note that for the USPS there are two different calculations for DIM weight: (L × W × H)/194 for domestic shipments and (L × W × H)/166 for international shipments.

  3. Human body weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_body_weight

    Male ideal body weight = 50 kilograms (110 lb) + 0.9 kilograms (2.0 lb) × (height (cm) − 152) Female ideal body weight = 45.5 kilograms (100 lb) + 0.9 kilograms (2.0 lb) × (height (cm) − 152) Hamwi method. The Hamwi method is used to calculate the ideal body weight of the general adult:

  4. Weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight

    The SI unit of weight is the same as that of force: the newton (N) – a derived unit which can also be expressed in SI base units as kg⋅m/s 2 (kilograms times metres per second squared). In commercial and everyday use, the term "weight" is usually used to mean mass, and the verb "to weigh" means "to determine the mass of" or "to have a mass of".

  5. Conversion of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units

    Conversion of units is the conversion of the unit of measurement in which a quantity is expressed, typically through a multiplicative conversion factor that changes the unit without changing the quantity. This is also often loosely taken to include replacement of a quantity with a corresponding quantity that describes the same physical property.

  6. Thrust-to-weight ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thrust-to-weight_ratio

    The thrust-to-weight ratio is calculated by dividing the thrust (in SI units – in newtons) by the weight (in newtons) of the engine or vehicle. The weight (N) is calculated by multiplying the mass in kilograms (kg) by the acceleration due to gravity (m/s 2 ). The thrust can also be measured in pound-force (lbf), provided the weight is ...

  7. Specific weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_weight

    The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma ), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight per unit volume of a material. A commonly used value is the specific weight of water on Earth at 4 °C (39 °F), which is 9.807 kilonewtons per cubic metre or 62.43 pounds-force per cubic foot.

  8. Slug (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slug_(unit)

    A slug is defined as a mass that is accelerated by 1 ft/s 2 when a net force of one pound (lbf) is exerted on it. [2] One slug is a mass equal to 32.17405 lb (14.59390 kg) based on standard gravity, the international foot, and the avoirdupois pound. [3] In other words, at the Earth's surface (in standard gravity), an object with a mass of 1 ...

  9. Weight class (boxing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weight_class_(boxing)

    The lower limit for "heavyweight" was established in 1948 at 81 kg. When a new limit of 91+ kg was established in 1984, the name "heavyweight" was kept by the 81+ kg class, and the 91+ kg class was named "super heavyweight", a name not currently used in professional boxing. Classes are as follows: [16] Class name. Weight class limit (kg/lbs) Men.
