Slug

What is a slug?

The slug is the mass that accelerates at 1 ft/s^2 under a force of one pound-force, about 14.59 kg.

Origin of the slug

Coined in the early 20th century for the British gravitational (engineering) system.

Where it is used

US and British engineering dynamics.

When and where it was developed

Introduced in the British gravitational system of units.

Planck Mass

What is a planck mass?

The Planck mass equals about 2.18E-8 kg, formed from the constants h-bar, c, and G.

Origin of the planck mass

Introduced by Max Planck in 1899 as part of a system of natural units.

Where it is used

Theoretical physics and quantum-gravity research.

When and where it was developed

Defined by Planck in 1899 from fundamental constants.

Slug to Planck Mass conversion formula

Note: this conversion uses a generally accepted modern value. Historical and regional definitions of this unit varied across times and places.

The relationship between slugs and planck mass:

1 slug = 6.704569e+8 mP
1 mP = 1.49152e-9 slug

To convert slugs to planck mass, multiply the value in slugs by 6.704569e+8. To reverse, multiply planck mass by 1.49152e-9.

How to use this converter

Type a value into the calculator. The result in planck mass updates as you type. Tap a quick value, copy the result with one click, or use the swap arrow to jump straight to the Planck Mass to Slug converter for the reverse direction.

Step-by-step: convert slugs to planck mass

  1. Write down the value in slugs (slug).
  2. Multiply that value by the factor 6.704569e+8.
  3. The product is the equivalent value in planck mass (mP).
  4. To reverse, multiply the planck mass value by 1.49152e-9.

Worked examples

Example 1 — Convert 1 slug to mP:
1 × 6.704569e+8 = 6.704569e+8 mP

Example 2 — Convert 100 slug to mP:
100 × 6.704569e+8 = 6.704569e+10 mP
