The poise (symbol P; / p ɔɪ z, p w ɑː z /) is the unit of dynamic viscosity (absolute viscosity) in the centimetre–gram–second system of units (CGS). [1] It is named after Jean Léonard Marie Poiseuille (see Hagen–Poiseuille equation). The centipoise (1 cP = 0.01 P) is more commonly used than the poise itself.
It is especially popular as a unit of measurement with shooters familiar with the imperial measurement system because 1 MOA subtends a circle with a diameter of 1.047 inches (which is often rounded to just 1 inch) at 100 yards (2.66 cm at 91 m or 2.908 cm at 100 m), a traditional distance on American target ranges.
Aggregation involves particulate adhesion and higher resistance to compaction. Typical bulk density of sandy soil is between 1.5 and 1.7 g/cm 3. This calculates to a porosity between 0.43 and 0.36. Typical bulk density of clay soil is between 1.1 and 1.3 g/cm 3. This calculates to a porosity between 0.58 and 0.51.
The designation of a location as, for example [54.1855,-2.9857] means that it is potentially computer searchable and that it can be located by a generally (open) referencing system such as Google Earth or OpenStreetMap. The location [54.1855,-2.9857] is that of a 2023 piece of land art 'Out of the ground, a thread of air' by Julie Brook.
The silver cross is 3.9 cm (1.5 in) long by 2 cm (0.79 in) wide - should it be 0.8 in? Done. The barrow comprises a circular central mound approximately 15 m (49 ft) - should be 50 ft? Done. Otherwise reads soundly. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 05:27, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
