Kilograms

šŸ“– A kilogram is a metric unit of mass that is equal to 1000 grams or approximately the weight of a liter of water. It is commonly used to measure the weight of people, animals, and large objects.


šŸ’” The kilogram is the only SI base unit that is still defined by a physical artifact, a platinum-iridium cylinder called the International Prototype of the Kilogram. However, this definition is set to change in 2019 with the redefinition of the kilogram based on fundamental constants.

Tons

šŸ“– A ton is a unit of mass that can refer to either a short-ton or a long-ton, depending on the context. In the US, a ton is equal to 2,000 pounds, while in the UK, it can refer to either 2,000 or 2,240 pounds. It is commonly used to measure the weight of heavy objects, such as vehicles or machinery.


šŸ’” The word "ton" comes from the Old English word "tunne," which means a large barrel or cask. This is because the weight of a barrel full of wine or beer was often used as a standard measurement in medieval times.
