≈ Energy from burning 16 kilograms of oil (using 135 kg per barrel of light crude) [citation needed] 10 9: giga-(GJ) 1×10 9 J: Energy in an average lightning bolt [130] (thunder) 1.1×10 9 J: Magnetic stored energy in the world's largest toroidal superconducting magnet for the ATLAS experiment at CERN, Geneva [131] 1.2×10 9 J
For example, in retail commerce, the "net weight" of products actually refers to mass, and is expressed in mass units such as grams or ounces (see also Pound: Use in commerce). Conversely, the load index rating on automobile tires, which specifies the maximum structural load for a tire in kilograms, refers to weight; that is, the force due to ...
Next is the conversion of stored energy to distance traveled under power. ... For local rate per kWh $/gallon equivalent: $0.03 $1.000 $0.04 $1.333 $0.05 $1.667
The Imperial gallon was based on the concept that an Imperial fluid ounce of water would have a mass of one Avoirdupois ounce, and indeed 1 g/cm 3 ≈ 1.00224129 ounces per Imperial fluid ounce = 10.0224129 pounds per Imperial gallon. The density of precious metals could conceivably be based on Troy ounces and pounds, a possible cause of confusion.
The 5-kg 35 kCi (1,300 TBq) strontium-90 sources were found, removed from their shielding, nearby. With their depleted uranium shielding removed, the dose rate for a single source was 800–1,000 rem (8.0–10.0 Sv)/hour at a distance of 2–5 cm.
Some SI units of volume to scale and approximate corresponding mass of water. A litre is a cubic decimetre, which is the volume of a cube 10 centimetres × 10 centimetres × 10 centimetres (1 L ≡ 1 dm 3 ≡ 1000 cm 3).
Uranium is a silvery-gray, weakly radioactive metallic chemical element.It has the chemical symbol U and atomic number 92. The most common isotopes in natural uranium are 238 U (99.274%) and 235 U (0.711%).
A maize crop yielding 6–9 tonnes of grain per hectare (2.5 acres) requires 31–50 kilograms (68–110 lb) of phosphate fertilizer to be applied; soybean crops require about half, 20–25 kg per hectare. [21] Yara International is the world's largest producer of nitrogen-based fertilizers. [22]
