  2. Metric prefix - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_prefix

    As such, Richard J.C. Brown (who proposed the prefixes adopted for 10 ±27 and 10 ±30) has proposed a reintroduction of compound prefixes (e.g. kiloquetta-for 10 33) if a driver for prefixes at such scales ever materialises, with a restriction that the last prefix must always be quetta-or quecto-. This usage has not been approved by the BIPM.

  3. Planck units - Wikipedia

    Normalizing 4 π G to 1 (and therefore setting G = ⁠ 1 / 4 π ⁠): Gauss's law for gravity becomes Φ g = −M (rather than Φ g = −4 π M in Planck units). Eliminates 4 π G from the Poisson equation. Eliminates 4 π G in the gravitoelectromagnetic (GEM) equations, which hold in weak gravitational fields or locally flat spacetime.

    The chronic toxic dose of selenite for humans is about 2400 to 3000 micrograms of selenium per day. [140] Hydrogen selenide is an extremely toxic, corrosive gas. [ 141 ] Selenium also occurs in organic compounds, such as dimethyl selenide, selenomethionine , selenocysteine and methylselenocysteine , all of which have high bioavailability and ...

    Cunningham et al. [106] combined the microgram weight of the compound in the smoke of one cigarette with the known genotoxic effect per microgram to identify the most carcinogenic compounds in cigarette smoke. The seven most important carcinogens in tobacco smoke are shown in the table, along with DNA alterations they cause.
