Convert poundal to exagram
Please provide values below to convert poundal [pdl] to exagram [Eg], or Convert exagram to poundal.
1 pdl = 1.3825e-17 Eg. To convert poundal to exagram, multiply the value by 1.3825e-17; to go the other way, divide by it (1 Eg = 7.2330e+16 pdl). Both units measure weight and mass and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 pdl = 1.3825e-17 Eg
- 1 Eg = 7.2330e+16 pdl
- 10 pdl = 1.3825e-16 Eg
- 100 pdl = 1.3825e-15 Eg
How to Convert Poundal to Exagram
1 pdl = 1.38254954376e-17 Eg
Example: convert 15 pdl to Eg:
15 pdl = 15 × 1.38254954376e-17 Eg = 2.07382431564e-16 Eg

Poundal
The poundal (pdl) is a unit of force in the foot-pound-second (FPS) system, defined as the force required to accelerate a one-pound mass at a rate of one foot per second squared.
History/Origin
The poundal was introduced in the 19th century as part of the FPS system of units, primarily used in engineering and physics before the widespread adoption of the SI system. It was designed to provide a consistent force unit based on imperial units.
Current Use
Today, the poundal is largely obsolete and rarely used outside of historical or specialized engineering contexts. It is mainly referenced for educational purposes or in discussions of imperial units, with the SI unit of force (newton) being the standard.
Exagram
An exagram (Eg) is a unit of mass equal to 10^18 grams, used to measure extremely large quantities of mass.
History/Origin
The exagram is a relatively recent addition to the metric system, introduced to facilitate the measurement of very large masses in scientific and industrial contexts, aligning with the SI prefixes for large units.
Current Use
Exagrams are primarily used in scientific research, astronomy, and large-scale industrial applications to quantify massive amounts of material or celestial bodies.
Frequently Asked Questions
