  2. Kos (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kos_(unit)

    The kos (Hindi: कोस), also spelled coss, koss, kosh, koh(in Punjabi), krosh, and krosha, is a unit of measurement which is derived from a Sanskrit term, क्रोश krośa, which means a 'call', as the unit was supposed to represent the distance at which another human could be heard.

  3. Unit of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_time

    The Jiffy is the amount of time light takes to travel one femtometre (about the diameter of a nucleon). The Planck time is the time that light takes to travel one Planck length. The TU (for time unit) is a unit of time defined as 1024 μs for use in engineering. The svedberg is a time unit used for sedimentation rates (usually

  4. Hindu units of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hindu_units_of_time

    Hindu units of time are described in Hindu texts ranging from microseconds to trillions of years, including cycles of cosmic time that repeat general events in Hindu cosmology. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Time ( kāla ) is described as eternal. [ 3 ]

    Distance from the Sun to Satyaloka: 233,800,000 yojanas (1,870,400,000 miles) Covering [clarification needed] of the Universe: 260,000,000 yojanas (2,080,000,000 miles) away from the Sun{, each covering layer is 10 times bigger than previous [4] Distance from lower planets to Śesha Nāga lying on the Garbhodaka Ocean: 30,000 yojanas [citation ...

  6. Absement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absement

    It is the first time-integral of the displacement [3] [4] (i.e. absement is the area under a displacement vs. time graph), so the displacement is the rate of change (first time-derivative) of the absement. The dimension of absement is length multiplied by time.

  7. Multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication

    For example, multiplying the lengths (in meters or feet) of the two sides of a rectangle gives its area (in square meters or square feet). Such a product is the subject of dimensional analysis. The inverse operation of multiplication is division. For example, since 4 multiplied by 3 equals 12, 12 divided by 3 equals 4.

  8. Centimetre–gram–second system of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centimetre–gram–second...

    All other electric and magnetic units are derived from these four base units using the most basic common definitions: for example, electric charge q is defined as current I multiplied by time t, =, resulting in the unit of electric charge, the coulomb (C), being defined as 1 C = 1 A⋅s.

  9. Pseudorange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorange

    The pseudoranges of each satellite are obtained by multiplying the speed of light by the time the signal has taken from the satellite to the receiver. As there are accuracy errors in the time measured, the term pseudo -ranges is used rather than ranges for such distances.
