Units explained
Slug
The slug is the mass that accelerates at 1 ft/s^2 under a force of one pound-force, about 14.59 kg.
Coined in the early 20th century for the British gravitational (engineering) system.
US and British engineering dynamics.
Introduced in the British gravitational system of units.
Electron Mass (rest)
The electron rest mass is about 9.109E-31 kg.
The mass of the electron, the lightest charged elementary particle.
Atomic and particle physics.
Quantified after J. J. Thomson identified the electron in 1897.
