UK Long Tons: A Unit of Weight

UK long tons are a unit of weight that are used for measuring large masses, such as ships, bridges, and buildings. UK long tons are also known as imperial tons or displacement tons. The symbol for UK long ton is LT.

Definition of the UK Long Ton

The UK long ton is defined as 2240 pounds, which is the common unit of weight in the British imperial system of measurements. The UK long ton is equal to 20 long hundredweight, each of which is 8 stone (1 stone = 14 pounds). The UK long ton is also equal to 1.12 short tons, which are used in the United States.

The UK long ton is equal to about 1016 kilograms or 1.016 tonnes. The UK long ton is also equal to about 0.9072 tonnes-force.

How to Convert UK Long Tons

UK long tons can be converted to other units of weight by using conversion factors or formulas. Here are some examples of how to convert UK long tons to other units of weight in the US customary system and the SI system:

  • To convert UK long tons to avoirdupois pounds, multiply by 2240. For example, 10 LT = 10 x 2240 = 22400 lb.
  • To convert UK long tons to short tons, multiply by 1.12. For example, 5 LT = 5 x 1.12 = 5.6 st.
  • To convert UK long tons to tonnes, multiply by 1.016. For example, 20 LT = 20 x 1.016 = 20.32 t.
  • To convert UK long tons to kilograms, multiply by 1016.047. For example, 15 LT = 15 x 1016.047 = 15241.705 kg.
  • To convert UK long tons to grams, multiply by 1016047. For example, 25 LT = 25 x 1016047 = 25401175 g.
  • To convert UK long tons to milligrams, multiply by 1016047000. For example, 30 LT = 30 x 1016047000 = 30481410000 mg.

Where UK Long Tons are Used

UK long tons are used in different countries and regions for different applications and purposes. Here are some examples of where UK long tons are used:

  • In the United Kingdom and some other Commonwealth of Nations countries, UK long tons are used for measuring weight, especially for large masses, such as ships, bridges, and buildings.
  • In the United States, UK long tons are sometimes used for measuring weight, especially for naval vessels and their displacement.
  • In Canada, Australia and New Zealand, UK long tons are sometimes used for measuring weight, especially for naval vessels and their displacement.
  • In India, UK long tons are sometimes used for measuring weight, especially for naval vessels and their displacement.

History of UK Long Tons

UK long tons have a long history that dates back to the Middle Ages. Here are some highlights of the history of UK long tons:

  • The UK long ton was originally based on the weight of a tun or a large cask that could hold about 252 gallons of wine or ale.
  • The UK long ton was part of the British imperial system of measurements that was established in the early modern period as a standardised system of weights and measures that replaced the diverse local units that varied from region to region.
  • The UK long ton was adopted by many countries around the world as part of the British Empire and its influence on trade and commerce.
  • The UK long ton was also referred to as the imperial ton or the displacement ton in some countries and contexts to distinguish it from the short ton used in the United States and the metric tonne used in most other countries.

Example Conversions of UK Long Tons to Other Units

Here are some examples of conversions of UK long tons to other units of weight:

  • 1 LT = 2240 lb
  • 1 LT = 1.12 st
  • 1 LT = 1.016 t
  • 1 LT = 1016.047 kg
  • 1 LT = 1016047 g
  • 1 LT = 1016047000 mg
  • 1 LT = 35.8403 oz t
  • 1 LT = 7168 dwt

Kilograms: A Unit of Weight

Definition of the Kilogram

A kilogram is a unit of weight that measures how much force an object or substance exerts on a scale due to gravity. It is equal to the mass of the International Prototype of the Kilogram (IPK), a cylinder of platinum-iridium alloy stored at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in France. One kilogram can also be written as kg or 1000 g.

History of the Kilogram

The kilogram was originally defined in 1795 during the French Revolution as the mass of one litre of water at 4 °C, which was determined to be 18841 grains. In 1799, the Kilogramme des Archives, a platinum artifact, replaced it as the standard of weight. In 1889, the IPK became the new standard of the unit of weight for the metric system and remained so for 130 years, until the current definition was adopted in 2019.

The kilogram, as well as other metric units of weight, such as the gram and the tonne, were introduced in the 19th century as part of the decimal system of measurement that aimed to simplify and unify the units used in science and commerce. The kilogram was officially adopted by the International System of Units (SI) in 1960 as one of the seven base units.

How to Convert Kilograms

To convert kilograms to other units of weight, we need to use conversion factors that relate the kilogram to the desired unit. For example, to convert kilograms to pounds, we need to know that one pound is equal to 0.45359237 kg. Therefore, one kilogram is equal to 2.2046226218 pounds.

Here are some common conversion factors for kilograms:

  • 1 kg = 1000 g
  • 1 kg = 2.2046226218 lb
  • 1 kg = 35.27396195 oz
  • 1 kg = 0.001 t
  • 1 kg = 0.1574730444 st

To convert from other units of weight to kilograms, we need to use the inverse of these conversion factors. For example, to convert pounds to kilograms, we need to divide by 2.2046226218.

Where Kilograms are Used

The kilogram is a unit of weight that is widely used to measure the weight of objects and substances such as food, clothes, animals, metals and chemicals. For example, an adult human body has an average weight of about 62 kg.

The kilogram is also used to measure the weight of some physical quantities such as force, pressure and torque. For example, one newton (N) is equal to one kilogram times one meter per second squared (kg x m/s2).

Example Conversions of Kilograms to Other Units

Here are some examples of how to convert kilograms to other units of weight using the conversion factors given above:

  • 2 kg = 2 x 1000 g = 2000 g
  • 3 kg = 3 x 2.2046226218 lb = 6.6138678654 lb
  • 4 kg = 4 x 35.27396195 oz = 141.0958478 oz
  • 5 kg = 5 x 0.001 t = 0.005 t
  • 6 kg = 6 x 0.1574730444 st = 0.9448382664 st

Conclusion

The kilogram is a unit of weight that measures how much force an object or substance exerts on a scale due to gravity. It is equal to the mass of the IPK, a cylinder of platinum-iridium alloy stored in France. The kilogram is widely used to measure the weight of objects and substances such as food, clothes, animals, metals and chemicals, as well as some physical quantities such as force, pressure and torque. To convert kilograms to other units of weight, we need to use conversion factors that relate the kilogram to the desired unit.

Kilograms also can be marked as kilogrammes in UK.
