  2. Displacement (fluid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_(fluid)

    The fluid displaced has a weight W = mg, where g is acceleration due to gravity. Therefore, the weight of the displaced fluid can be expressed as W = ρVg. The weight of an object or substance can be measured by floating a sufficiently buoyant receptacle in the cylinder and noting the water level.

  3. gc (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gc_(engineering)

    In engineering and physics, g c is a unit conversion factor used to convert mass to force or vice versa. [1] It is defined as = In unit systems where force is a derived unit, like in SI units, g c is equal to 1.

  4. Specific weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_weight

    The specific weight, also known as the unit weight (symbol γ, the Greek letter gamma), is a volume-specific quantity defined as the weight W divided by the volume V of a material: = / Equivalently, it may also be formulated as the product of density, ρ, and gravity acceleration, g: = Its unit of measurement in the International System of Units (SI) is newton per cubic metre (N/m 3), with ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrized_unit_system

    Listed below are all conversion factors that are useful to convert between all combinations of the SI base units, and if not possible, between them and their unique elements, because ampere is a dimensionless ratio of two lengths such as [C/s], and candela (1/683 [W/sr]) is a dimensionless ratio of two dimensionless ratios such as ratio of two volumes [kg⋅m 2 /s 3] = [W] and ratio of two ...

    With this conversion from SCCM to kg/s, one can then use available unit calculators to convert kg/s to other units, [5] such as g/s of the CGS system, or slug/s. Based on the above formulas, the relationship between SCCM and molar flow rate in kmol/s is given by

  8. Natural units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_units

    In physics, natural unit systems are measurement systems for which selected physical constants have been set to 1 through nondimensionalization of physical units.For example, the speed of light c may be set to 1, and it may then be omitted, equating mass and energy directly E = m rather than using c as a conversion factor in the typical mass–energy equivalence equation E = mc 2.

  9. Meniscus (liquid) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meniscus_(liquid)

    A meniscus as seen in a burette of colored water. '20.00 mL' is the correct depth measurement. When reading a depth scale on the side of an instrument filled with liquid, such as a water level device , the meniscus must be taken into account in order to obtain an accurate measurement.
