Kilogram

A kilogram is the mass’s base unit in the International System of Units (SI) and its symbol is (kg). Nowadays it is defined based on the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant, h, which equals 6.62607015 × 10-34 in the units of J·s, or kg·m2·s-1. In spite of the fact that in 2019 the definition of the kilogram was changed, the actual size of the unit stayed the same. The changes were intended just to improve the definitions of SI base units.

The term kilogram emanated from the French “kilogramme,” which in turn came from adding Greek terminology meaning “a thousand,” before the Late Latin term “gramma” meaning “a small weight.”

Originally, in 1794, the kilogram was defined as the mass of one liter of water at its freezing point but was eventually revised, since measuring the mass of a volume of water was ambiguous.

In 2019, a new definition of the kilogram was presented based on Planck’s constant and modifications to the definition of the second. Prior to the present definition, the kilogram was represented as being equivalent to the mass of a physical prototype, a cylinder made of platinum-iridium alloy, which was an inadequate measure. The mass of the original prototype for the kilogram now weighs fifty micrograms less than other copies of the standard kilogram.

The kilogram is used throughout the globe in nearly all fields and applications as a base unit of SI, with the exception of countries such as the US, where the kilogram is used in multiple areas such as science, government, industry, and the military but normally not in daily applications.

Pound

It is a unit of mass used in the imperial and United States customary systems of measurement and its symbol is (lb). The international avoirdupois pound (the standard pound used nowadays) is represented as precisely 0.45359237 kilograms. The avoirdupois pound equals 16 (sixteen) avoirdupois ounces.

The pound derived from the Roman libra, and numerous different definitions of the pound were used all through history earlier to the international avoirdupois pound that is broadly used today. The system of the avoirdupois was commonly used in the 13th century. It was revised to its present form in 1959.

The pound as a unit of weight is generally used in the US, usually for measuring body weight. Many versions of the pound existed in the past in the UK and although the United Kingdom largely uses the SI units, pounds are still used within particular contexts, such as the labeling of packaged foods (according to law the metric values must also be indicated). The United Kingdom also often uses both pounds and stones when describing body weight, where a stone contains 14 pounds.
