  2. gc (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gc_(engineering)

    gc (engineering) g. c. (engineering) In engineering and physics, gc is a unit conversion factor used to convert mass to force or vice versa. [1] It is defined as. In unit systems where force is a derived unit, like in SI units, gc is equal to 1. In unit systems where force is a primary unit, like in imperial and US customary measurement systems ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kampfgeschwader_200

    Kampfgeschwader 200 (KG 200) ("[Air] Combat Squadron 200") was a German Luftwaffe special operations unit during World War II. The unit carried out especially difficult bombing and transport operations and long-distance reconnaissance flights, tested new aircraft designs and operated captured aircraft.

  4. Specific heat capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Specific_heat_capacity

    Dimension. L 2 ⋅T −2 ⋅K −1. In thermodynamics, the specific heat capacity (symbol c) of a substance is the amount of heat that must be added to one unit of mass of the substance in order to cause an increase of one unit in temperature. It is also referred to as massic heat capacity or as the specific heat. More formally it is the heat ...

  5. General-purpose bomb - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General-purpose_bomb

    General-purpose (GP) bombs use a thick-walled metal casing with explosive filler (typically TNT, Composition B, or Tritonal in NATO or United States service) comprising about 30% to 40% of the bomb's total weight. The British term for a bomb of this type is "medium case" or "medium capacity" (MC). The GP bomb is a common weapon of fighter ...

  6. Newton (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    Imperial units. 0.224809 lbf. The newton (symbol: N) is the unit of force in the International System of Units (SI). It is defined as , the force which gives a mass of 1 kilogram an acceleration of 1 metre per second squared. It is named after Isaac Newton in recognition of his work on classical mechanics, specifically his second law of motion .

  7. Gauss (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    The gauss is the unit of magnetic flux density B in the system of Gaussian units and is equal to Mx /cm 2 or g / Bi /s 2, while the oersted is the unit of H -field. One tesla (T) corresponds to 10 4 gauss, and one ampere (A) per metre corresponds to 4π × 10 −3 oersted. The units for magnetic flux Φ, which is the integral of magnetic B ...

  8. Geometrized unit system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrized_unit_system

    Geometrized unit system. A geometrized unit system[ 1] or geometrodynamic unit system is a system of natural units in which the base physical units are chosen so that the speed of light in vacuum, c, and the gravitational constant, G, are set equal to unity. The geometrized unit system is not a completely defined system.

  9. Kilogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilogram

    The kilogram, symbol kg, is the SI unit of mass. It is defined by taking the fixed numerical value of the Planck constant h to be 6.626 070 15 × 10−34 when expressed in the unit J⋅s, which is equal to kg⋅m 2 ⋅s −1, where the metre and the second are defined in terms of c and ΔνCs. — CGPM [ 6][ 7]
