About Pounds per second
The pound per second (lb/s) equals 0.45359237 kg/s, widely used in aerospace and large industrial equipment. A Saturn V first-stage engine consumed ≈13 short tons of propellant per second, equal to ≈26 000 lb/s; a typical large centrifugal pump handling water moves ≈500-2000 lb/s at operating flow. 1 lb/s = 0.45359237 kg/s ≈ 3 600 lb/h.
About Milligrams per hour
The milligram per hour (mg/h) equals 10⁻⁶/3600 ≈ 2.778×10⁻¹⁰ kg/s, adopted in transdermal drug-patch pharmacokinetics to express dermal absorption rate. A nicotine patch typically releases 14-21 mg over 24 h, corresponding to ≈0.58-0.88 mg/h. Environmental emission tests for laboratory fume hoods also express contaminant escape in mg/h. 1 mg/h = 1/3600 mg/s.
