  2. Neutron star - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_star

    A 2021 measurement of the pulsar PSR J0740+6620 was able to constrain the radius of a 1.4 solar mass neutron star to 12.33 +0.76 −0.8 km with 95% confidence. [30] These mass-radius constraints, combined with chiral effective field theory calculations, tightens constraints on the neutron star equation of state. [23]

  3. Cubic centimetre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubic_centimetre

    One cubic centimetre corresponds to a volume of one millilitre. The mass of one cubic centimetre of water at 3.98 °C (the temperature at which it attains its maximum density) is almost equal to one gram. One complete cycle of a straight-four engine. The areas marked in orange represent the displaced volumes. In internal combustion engines, "cc ...

  4. Orders of magnitude (mass) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(mass)

    The tonne (t) is an SI-compatible unit of mass equal to a megagram ( Mg ), or 10 3 kg. The unit is in common use for masses above about 10 3 kg and is often used with SI prefixes. For example, a gigagram ( Gg) or 10 9 g is 10 3 tonnes, commonly called a kilotonne .

  5. Brain size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_size

    The adult human brain weighs on average about 1.5 kg (3.3 lb). [ 1] In men the average weight is about 1370 g and in women about 1200 g. [ 2][contradictory] The volume is around 1260 cm 3 in men and 1130 cm 3 in women, although there is substantial individual variation. [ 3] Yet another study argued that adult human brain weight is 1300-1400 g ...

  6. Centimetre - Wikipedia

    The microwave is in-between 1 meter to 1 millimeter. A centimetre (International spelling) or centimeter ( American spelling ), with SI symbol cm, is a unit of length in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one hundredth of a metre, centi being the SI prefix for a factor of ⁠ 1 100 ⁠. [ 1] Equivalently, there are 100 centimetres ...

    B − L. −1. X. −3. A neutrino ( / njuːˈtriːnoʊ / new-TREE-noh; denoted by the Greek letter ν) is a fermion (an elementary particle with spin of ⁠ 1 2 ⁠) that interacts only via the weak interaction and gravity. [ 2][ 3] The neutrino is so named because it is electrically neutral and because its rest mass is so small ( -ino) that ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_head

    One study in the United States estimated the average human head circumference to be 57 centimetres (22 + 1 ⁄ 2 in) in males and 55 centimetres (21 + 3 ⁄ 4 in) in females. [ 7 ] [ dubious – discuss ] A British study by Newcastle University showed an average size of 57.2 cm for males and 55.2 cm for females with average size varying ...
