2 cm – approximate width of an adult human finger; 2.54 cm – 1 inch; 3.08568 cm – 1 attoparsec; 3.4 cm – length of a quail egg [112] 3.5 cm – width of film commonly used in motion pictures and still photography; 3.78 cm – amount of distance the Moon moves away from Earth each year [113] 4.3 cm – minimum diameter of a golf ball [114]
Spatial frequency is a reciprocal length, which can thus be used as a measure of energy, usually of a particle. For example, the reciprocal centimetre, cm −1, is an energy unit equal to the energy of a photon with a wavelength of 1 cm. That energy amounts to approximately 1.24 × 10 −4 eV or 1.986 × 10 −23 J.
For example, a wavenumber in inverse centimeters can be converted to a frequency expressed in the unit gigahertz by multiplying by 29.979 2458 cm/ns (the speed of light, in centimeters per nanosecond); [5] conversely, an electromagnetic wave at 29.9792458 GHz has a wavelength of 1 cm in free space.
For example, according to the capacitance row of the table, if a capacitor has a capacitance of 1 F in SI, then it has a capacitance of (10 −9 c 2) cm in ESU; but it is incorrect to replace "1 F" with "(10 −9 c 2) cm" within an equation or formula. (This warning is a special aspect of electromagnetism units.
Curium readily reacts with oxygen forming mostly Cm 2 O 3 and CmO 2 oxides, [52] but the divalent oxide CmO is also known. [66] Black CmO 2 can be obtained by burning curium oxalate (Cm 2 (C 2 O 4) 3), nitrate (Cm(NO 3) 3), or hydroxide in pure oxygen. [28] [67] Upon heating to 600–650 °C in vacuum (about 0.01 Pa), it transforms into the ...
I 3 = the 3×3 identity matrix a cm = acceleration of the center of mass v cm = velocity of the center of mass τ = total torque acting about the center of mass I cm = moment of inertia about the center of mass ω = angular velocity of the body α = angular acceleration of the body
A centimetre of water [1] is a unit of pressure. It may be defined as the pressure exerted by a column of water of 1 cm in height at 4 °C (temperature of maximum density) at the standard acceleration of gravity, so that 1 cmH 2 O (4°C) = 999.9720 kg/m 3 × 9.80665 m/s 2 × 1 cm = 98.063754138 Pa ≈ 98.0638 Pa, but conventionally a nominal maximum water density of 1000 kg/m 3 is used, giving ...
0.06102374 in 3 Some SI units of volume to scale and approximate corresponding mass of water A cubic centimetre (or cubic centimeter in US English ) (SI unit symbol: cm 3 ; non-SI abbreviations: cc and ccm ) is a commonly used unit of volume that corresponds to the volume of a cube that measures 1 cm × 1 cm × 1 cm.
