Ezias said:2.225 if you want to be really precise -- and technically kg is mass and not weight 1kg = 4.445 (4.45) Newtons. But all that gets too annoying
I thought you meant the mysterious SI, which magically keeps accumulating in your inventory in ADOM. Not even Thomas Biskup knows what it is.Elrond said:whatever, its getting more confusing
sorry,ı forget explain what is SI =)
SI(system international) is a system about units,and it accept (is it the right word) some units for ex. meter,gram ,newton
@ezias and eogan : thanks for informations...
Merlkir said:Don't get what you mean by the newtons. Newton is a unit for force. Like gravitation force. So you get force like this. F = m*a . Where "m" is weight in kgs (or mass if you want to use that ridiculous lbs ) and a is acceleration in m/s. If you wish, you can explain weight as a force that pushes down to the Earth. Therefore you use Earth's gravity acceleration. (which is 9,81...m^2/s) so by my count it's more like the force one kilo makes is F = 1 * 9,81 = 9,81 N .
/slight OT

Tarrak said:I thought SI was Standard Imperial... So naturally I was about to complain about that.
I have wondered something. Why was the Republican shield so much heavier than the Imperial? It isn't all that much bigger, is it a lot thicker?
As far as I know it had three layers of woodstrips, did the Imperial only have two?
