Kilogram-Force Square Second/meter
Kilogram-force square second per meter (kgf·s²/m) is a derived unit used to measure a specific combination of force, time, and length, often in specialized engineering contexts.
History/Origin
The unit originates from the kilogram-force, a gravitational force unit based on the kilogram mass, combined with time and length units for specific applications. It has been used historically in mechanical and engineering calculations before the widespread adoption of SI units.
Current Use
Currently, kgf·s²/m is rarely used in modern engineering, having been largely replaced by SI units. It may still appear in legacy systems or specialized fields requiring non-standard units.
Ton (Assay) (Uk)
The ton (assay) (UK), symbol AT (UK), is a traditional unit of weight used primarily for precious metals, equivalent to 31.1034768 grams.
History/Origin
The assay ton originated in the United Kingdom as a standard measure for precious metals, particularly gold and silver, used in assay processes and trading. It has historical roots in the British imperial system and was standardized for trade and assay purposes.
Current Use
Today, the assay ton (UK) is mainly used in the precious metals industry for assay and valuation purposes, especially in the UK and related markets, although it has largely been replaced by the metric gram and troy ounce in general commerce.
