Convert Dalton to Slug
Dalton
The dalton (Da) or unified atomic mass unit (u) is a unit of mass used to express atomic and molecular weights. It is defined as one twelfth of the mass of an unbound neutral atom of carbon-12 in its nuclear and electronic ground state, and it is approximately equal to 1.66053906660 × 10⁻²⁷ kg.
The dalton is named after the English chemist and physicist John Dalton, who developed the atomic theory of matter. The unit was adopted in 1961 by the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) and the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) to provide a standardized unit for atomic and molecular weights.
Slug
The slug is a unit of mass used in the imperial system and the U.S. customary system, primarily in the context of physics and engineering. It is defined as the mass that will accelerate by 1 foot per second squared (1 ft/s²) when a force of 1 pound-force is applied. One slug is approximately 14.5939 kilograms.
The slug was introduced in the late 19th century as part of the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, which was developed to be more consistent with the principles of mechanics, particularly Newton's second law of motion. The term "slug" was chosen because it represented a unit of mass that would help express the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration in a way that was easier to apply in engineering and scientific calculations. The slug is used primarily in the U.S. and some engineering contexts, but it is less common in everyday measurements, where the pound is typically used for mass and weight.
