  2. Circular mil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_mil

    FPS units. 7.853 982 × 10−7 in2. A circular mil is a unit of area, equal to the area of a circle with a diameter of one mil (one thousandth of an inch or 0.0254 mm). It corresponds to approximately 5.067 × 10−4 mm2. It is a unit intended for referring to the area of a wire with a circular cross section. As the definition of the unit ...

  3. Darcy (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    Converted to SI units, 1 darcy is equivalent to 9.869 233 × 10 −13 m 2 or 0.9869233 μm 2. This conversion is usually approximated as 1 μm 2. This is the reciprocal of 1.013250—the conversion factor from atmospheres to bars. Specifically in the hydrology domain, permeability of soil or rock may also be defined as the flux of water under ...

  4. List of conversion factors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_conversion_factors

    The general relationship between absorbed dose and equivalent dose can be represented as. H = Q ⋅ D. where H is the equivalent dose, D is the absorbed dose, and Q is a dimensionless quality factor. Thus, for any quantity of D measured in Gy, the numerical value for H measured in Sv may be different.

  5. Metre per second squared - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metre_per_second_squared

    Metre per second squared. The metre per second squared is the unit of acceleration in the International System of Units (SI). As a derived unit, it is composed from the SI base units of length, the metre, and time, the second. Its symbol is written in several forms as m/s2, m·s−2 or ms−2, , or less commonly, as (m/s)/s.

  6. Conversion of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units

    Conversion of units is the conversion of the unit of measurement in which a quantity is expressed, typically through a multiplicative conversion factor that changes the unit without changing the quantity. This is also often loosely taken to include replacement of a quantity with a corresponding quantity that describes the same physical property ...

  7. 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 .

  8. Candela per square metre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candela_per_square_metre

    Symbol. cd/m 2. In SI base units: cd · m2. The candela per square metre (symbol: cd/m2) is the unit of luminance in the International System of Units (SI). The unit is based on the candela, the SI unit of luminous intensity, and the square metre, the SI unit of area. The nit (symbol: nt) is a non-SI name also used for this unit (1 nt = 1 ...

  9. SI derived unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_derived_unit

    SI derived units are units of measurement derived from the seven SI base units specified by the International System of Units (SI). They can be expressed as a product (or ratio) of one or more of the base units, possibly scaled by an appropriate power of exponentiation (see: Buckingham π theorem ). Some are dimensionless, as when the units ...
