Is Lbs A Weight Or Mass? [Solved]
lb or lbs (pound or pounds) refers to a unit of force or weight, not mass. I told you it would be confusing! If a man who weighs 200 pounds hangs from a rope, the rope tension is 200 lbs, a force unit. A person who weighs 200 bls on Earth would weigh 33 lbs on the Moon, so “lbs” is a unit of weight, not mass.28 Sept 2008
