    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.

    The kayser (K) is a unit of wavenumber equal to 1 cm1 (100 m −1). The gal (Gal) is a unit of acceleration equal to 1 cm/s 2. [3] The dyne (dyn) is a unit of force equal to 1 g⋅cm⋅s −2 (10 μN). [3] The barye (Ba) is a unit of pressure equal to 1 dyn⋅cm2 (100 mPa). The erg (erg) is a unit of energy equal to 1 dyn⋅cm (100 nJ). [3]

  6. Gram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gram

    The gram (originally gramme; [1] SI unit symbol g) is a unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI) equal to one thousandth of a kilogram.. Originally defined in 1795 as "the absolute weight of a volume of pure water equal to the cube of the hundredth part of a metre [1 cm 3], and at the temperature of melting ice", [2] the defining temperature (≈0 °C) was later changed to 4 °C ...

    The prefix kilo, for example, implies a factor of 1000 (10 3), and the prefix milli implies a factor of 1/1000 (103). Thus, a kilometre is a thousand metres, and a milligram is one thousandth of a gram. These relations can be written symbolically as: [4]

    Originally, many thước of varying lengths were in use in Vietnam, each used for different purposes. According to Hoàng Phê (1988), [1] the traditional system of units had at least two thước of different lengths before 1890, [2] the thước ta (lit. "our ruler") or thước mộc ("wooden ruler"), equal to 0.425 metres (1 ft 4.7 in), and the thước đo vải ("ruler for measuring ...
