  2. Poise (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    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).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minute_and_second_of_arc

    A second of arc, arcsecond (abbreviated as arcsec), or arc second, denoted by the symbol ″, [2] is a unit of angular measurement equal to ⁠ 1 / 60 ⁠ of a minute of arc, ⁠ 1 / 3600 ⁠ of a degree, [1] ⁠ 1 / 1 296 000 ⁠ of a turn, and ⁠ π / 648 000 ⁠ (about ⁠ 1 / 206 264.8 ⁠) of a radian.

  4. Porosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porosity

    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.

    A value in decimal degrees to a precision of 4 decimal places is precise to 11.1 metres (36 ft) at the equator. A value in decimal degrees to 5 decimal places is precise to 1.11 metres (3 ft 8 in) at the equator.

  6. Surface tension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_tension

    h is the depth of the puddle in centimeters or meters. γ is the surface tension of the liquid in dynes per centimeter or newtons per meter. g is the acceleration due to gravity and is equal to 980 cm/s 2 or 9.8 m/s 2; ρ is the density of the liquid in grams per cubic centimeter or kilograms per cubic meter
