    25,031 to 25,160 ft⋅pdl (foot-poundal) 778.2 ft⋅lbf (foot-pounds-force) 5.40395 (lbf/in 2)⋅ft 3; A Btu can be approximated as the heat produced by burning a single wooden kitchen match or as the amount of energy it takes to lift a one-pound (0.45 kg) weight 778 feet (237 m). [16]

    Near the surface of the Earth, the acceleration due to gravity g = 9.807 m/s 2 (metres per second squared, which might be thought of as "metres per second, per second"; or 32.18 ft/s 2 as "feet per second per second") approximately. A coherent set of units for g, d, t and v is essential.
