  2. Cavendish experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cavendish_experiment

    Two massive 12-inch (300 mm), 348-pound (158 kg) lead balls, suspended separately, could be positioned away from or to either side of the smaller balls, 8.85 inches (225 mm) away. [9] The experiment measured the faint gravitational attraction between the small and large balls, which deflected the torsion balance rod by about 0.16" (or only 0.03 ...

  3. Schiehallion experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schiehallion_experiment

    From this it follows that the average density of Earth is approximately 1.8 times the density of the mountain. [15] [18] [19] Hutton took a density of 2,500 kg·m −3 for Schiehallion, and announced that the density of the Earth was 1.8 times this, or 4,500 kg·m −3, [18] less than 20% away from the modern value of 5,515 kg·m −3. [20]

  4. Orders of magnitude (mass) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(mass)

    However, the names of all SI mass units are based on gram, rather than on kilogram; thus 10 3 kg is a megagram (10 6 g), not a *kilokilogram. The tonne (t) is an SI-compatible unit of mass equal to a megagram (Mg), or 10 3 kg. The unit is in common use for masses above about 10 3 kg and is often used with SI prefixes.

  5. Orders of magnitude (length) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(length)

    The picometre (SI symbol: pm) is a unit of length in the metric system equal to 1012 metres (⁠ 1 / 1 000 000 000 000 ⁠ m = 0. 000 000 000 001 m). To help compare different orders of magnitude this section lists lengths between 1012 and 10 −11 m (1 pm and 10 pm). 1 pm – distance between atomic nuclei in a white dwarf [citation ...

  6. Gravitational constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_constant

    Cavendish's stated aim was the "weighing of Earth", that is, determining the average density of Earth and the Earth's mass. His result, ρ 🜨 = 5.448(33) g⋅cm −3, corresponds to value of G = 6.74(4) × 10 −11 m 3 ⋅kg −1 ⋅s −2. It is surprisingly accurate, about 1% above the modern value (comparable to the claimed relative ...
