A fluid ounce is a unit of volume (also called capacity) typically used for measuring liquids. Whilst various definitions have been used throughout history, two remain in common use: the imperial and the United States customary fluid ounce. An imperial fluid ounce is 1/20 of an imperial pint, 1/160 of an imperial gallon or approximately 28.4 ml. A US fluid ounce is 1/16 of a US fluid pint, 1/128 of a US liquid gallon or approximately 29.6 ml.
Definition of US short ton of water provided by WikiPedia
In the United States, a short ton is usually known simply as a “ton”, without distinguishing it from the tonne (1,000 kilograms or 2,204.62262 pounds), known there as the “metric ton”, or the long ton (2,240 pounds or 1,016.0469088 kilograms), known there as the “Imperial ton”. There are, however, some US applications where unspecified tons normally means long tons (for example, Navy ships) or metric tons (world grain production figures).
