One slug is a mass equal to 32.17405 lb (14.59390 kg) based on standard gravity, the international foot, and the avoirdupois pound. [3] In other words, at the Earth's surface (in standard gravity), an object with a mass of 1 slug weighs approximately 32.17405 lbf or 143.1173 N. [4] [5]
Boettgerilla pallens, common name the worm slug, is a European species of air-breathing land slug, ... 2–20 cm (maximum up to 60 cm) below surface. [33] ...
1 slug = 1 lbf⋅s 2 /ft ≈ 14.59390 kg; Force 1 poundal = force to accelerate 1 pound mass 1 foot/second/second ≈ 0.138 newtons. 1 kip = 1000 lbf ≈ 4.44822 kN; Energy 1 foot-pound ≈ 1.356 J; 1 British thermal unit (Btu) ≈ 1.055 kJ (1,054–1,060 J, depending on which of several definitions of BTU is used)
A pound-force is the amount of force required to accelerate a slug at a rate of 1 ft/s 2, so: = = ... 1 dyn = 10 −5 N: ≡ 1 g⋅cm/s 2:
When extended, this slug can attain a length of 12 cm (5 in.). [5] It is highly variable in coloration and positive identification depends on dissection and inspection of the genitalia. [5] It is usually very pale in color, ranging from mottle pale yellow, cream to white. [5]
The Model 3000 was available in 12 and 20 gauge, chambering 2 + 3 ⁄ 4 or 3 in (7.0 or 7.6 cm) shotshells. [1] A "slug gun" variant chambered for 2 + 3 ⁄ 4-inch shells with a magazine extension and a shorter barrel was offered in 12 gauge only, with optional open sights.
At any reasonable range, shotgun slugs make effective lethal wounds due to their tremendous mass, reducing the length of time that an animal might suffer. For example, a typical 12-gauge shotgun slug is a blunt piece of metal that could be described as an 18 mm (.729 inch) caliber that weighs 28 grams (432 grains).
This slug is 1.5 to 2 centimeters long. It is variable in color and patterning, being white, orange, or gray, with or without banding, and it has gray tentacles and a yellow or orange sole. It becomes compact and "nearly bell-shaped" when contracted. [4]
