For a complete list of all dimensions, see full list of units . { {Convert}} uses unit-codes, which are similar to, but not necessarily exactly the same as, the usual written abbreviation for a given unit. These unit-codes are displayed in column 3 of the following tables. These are accepted as input by { {convert}} as the second and third ...
List of physical quantities. This article consists of tables outlining a number of physical quantities. The first table lists the fundamental quantities used in the International System of Units to define the physical dimension of physical quantities for dimensional analysis. The second table lists the derived physical quantities.
statvolt (CGS unit) statV. ≘ c ⋅ (1 μJ/A⋅m) = 299.792458V. volt (SI unit) V. The difference in electric potential across two points along a conducting wire carrying one ampere of constant current when the power dissipated between the points equals one watt. [ 32 ] = 1 V = 1 W/A = 1 kg⋅m2/ (A⋅s3) = 1 J/C.
3.2808. The metre per second is the unit of both speed (a scalar quantity) and velocity (a vector quantity, which has direction and magnitude) in the International System of Units (SI), equal to the speed of a body covering a distance of one metre in a time of one second. According to the definition of metre, [1] 1 m/s is exactly of the speed ...
= 10 parts per million by volume = 10 ppmv = 10 volumes/10 6 volumes NO x molar mass = 46 kg/kmol = 46 g/mol Flow rate of flue gas = 20 cubic metres per minute = 20 m 3 /min The flue gas exits the furnace at 0 °C temperature and 101.325 kPa absolute pressure. The molar volume of a gas at 0 °C temperature and 101.325 kPa is 22.414 m 3 /kmol.
In 1972, using the laser interferometer method and the new definitions, a group at the US National Bureau of Standards in Boulder, Colorado determined the speed of light in vacuum to be c = 299 792 456.2 ± 1.1 m/s. This was 100 times less uncertain than the previously accepted value.
Lunar distance (LD), the distance from the centre of Earth to the centre of the Moon, is a unit of measure in astronomy. The lunar distance is approximately 384,400 km (238,900 mi), or 1.28 light-seconds; this is roughly 30 times Earth's diameter. A little less than 400 lunar distances make up an astronomical unit.
The inch per second is a unit of speed or velocity. It expresses the distance in inches (in) traveled or displaced, divided by time in seconds (s, or sec). The equivalent SI unit is the metre per second. [1] Abbreviations include in/s, [1] in/sec, ips, [1] and less frequently in s−1.
