  2. Gram per cubic centimetre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gram_per_cubic_centimetre

    It is equivalent to the units gram per millilitre (g/mL) and kilogram per litre (kg/L). The density of water is about 1 g/cm 3 , since the gram was originally defined as the mass of one cubic centimetre of water at its maximum density at 4 °C (39 °F).

    The lambert (L) is a unit of luminance equal to 10 4 /π cd⋅m −2. The lumerg is a unit of luminous energy equal to 10 −7 lumen-seconds (100 nlm s). The talbot (T) is a unit of luminous energy equal to one lumen-second ( 1 lm⋅s ).

  4. 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 ...

    Liquid water has a density of approximately 1 g/cm 3 (1 g/mL). Thus 100 mL of water is equal to approximately 100 g. Thus 100 mL of water is equal to approximately 100 g. Therefore, a solution with 1 g of solute dissolved in final volume of 100 mL aqueous solution may also be considered 1% m/m (1 g solute in 99 g water).

  6. Centimetre–gram–second system of units - Wikipedia

    For example, the CGS unit of force is the dyne, which is defined as 1 g⋅cm/s 2, so the SI unit of force, the newton (1 kg⋅m/s 2), is equal to 100 000 dynes. On the other hand, in measurements of electromagnetic phenomena (involving units of charge , electric and magnetic fields, voltage , and so on), converting between CGS and SI is less ...

  7. Geometrized unit system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrized_unit_system

    We can convert a mass expressed in kilograms to the equivalent mass expressed in metres by multiplying by the conversion factor G/c 2. For example, the Sun's mass of 2.0 × 10 30 kg in SI units is equivalent to 1.5 km. This is half the Schwarzschild radius of a one solar mass black hole. All other conversion factors can be worked out by ...

    The Bubble Nebula (NGC 7635) at left with about 520 cubic light years (4.4 × 10 50 m 3) dwarfs the Dumbbell Nebula's 12 cubic light years (1 × 10 49 m 3) (very approximate figures) The globular cluster Messier 5 at upper left with about 2 million cubic light years (1.7 × 10 54 m 3) dwarfs the much smaller Bubble Nebula at lower right.

  9. Finger tip unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finger_tip_unit

    Two FTUs are approximately equivalent to 1 g of topical steroid. One handprint is 0.8% (i.e. approximately 1%) of the total body surface area, [3] and one FTU covers approximately two handprints. As two FTUs are approximately equivalent to 1g of topical application, the "Rule of Hand" states that "4 hand areas = 2 FTU = 1 g". [4]
