About these units

Slug (slug)

The slug is a unit of mass in the English engineering system, defined such that a slug accelerated at 1 ft/s² experiences a force of 1 pound-force. Numerically, a slug is about 14.5939 kilograms. The slug resolves confusion between mass and force in imperial units by clearly separating pounds-force (lbf) from pounds-mass (lb). In dynamics problems involving Newton's laws, slugs provide a consistent mass measurement within the imperial framework. Although uncommon outside engineering physics education, the slug plays an important conceptual role in bridging imperial and SI thinking.

Megagram (Mg)

A megagram, equal to 1,000 kilograms, is identical in quantity to the metric ton (tonne). While "tonne" is common in daily life, Mg is preferred in engineering, environmental science, and formal scientific writing because it is unambiguous and adheres strictly to SI conventions. Megagrams are used to express masses of vehicles, construction materials, waste output, or agricultural yields in large-scale analyses. The unit is especially useful in Earth sciences, where megagram quantities describe biomass, sediment transport, or volcanic emissions.
