The farinograph is a tool used for measuring the shear and viscosity of a mixture of flour and water. The primary units of the farinograph are Brabender Units, an arbitrary unit of measuring the viscosity of a fluid. [2] A baker can formulate end products by using the farinograph's results to determine the following: [citation needed] Water ...

A number of different units (some only of historical interest) are shown and expressed in terms of the corresponding SI unit. Conversions between units in the metric system are defined by their prefixes (for example, 1 kilogram = 1000 grams, 1 milligram = 0.001 grams) and are thus not listed in this article.
The lumerg is a unit of luminous energy equal to 10 −7 lumen-seconds (100 nlm s). The talbot (T) is a unit of luminous energy equal to one lumen-second (1 lm⋅s). The einstein (E) has two conflicting definitions. The original is a unit of energy, equal to the energy in one mole (1 mol) of photons.

In all of these systems, the fundamental unit is the pound (lb), and all other units are defined as fractions or multiples of a pound. The tables of imperial troy mass and apothecaries' mass are the same as the corresponding United States tables, except for the British spelling "drachm" in the table of apothecaries' mass.
A similar system, termed British Engineering Units by Halliday and Resnick (1974), is a system that uses the slug as the unit of mass, and in which Newton's law retains the form F = ma. [5] Modern British engineering practice has used SI base units since at least the late 1970s.
The femtometre (SI symbol: fm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 10 −15 metres. In particle physics, this unit is sometimes called a fermi, also with abbreviation "fm". To help compare different orders of magnitude, this section lists lengths between 10 −15 meters and 10 −14 meters (1 femtometer and 10 fm).
