  2. Gauss (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    The conversion factor is 10 8 maxwell per weber, since flux is the integral of field over an area, area having the units of the square of distance, thus 10 4 G/T (magnetic field conversion factor) times the square of 10 2 cm/m (linear distance conversion factor). 10 8 Mx/Wb = 10 4 G/T × (10 2 cm/m) 2.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farad

    For most applications, the farad is an impractically large unit of capacitance. Most electrical and electronic applications are covered by the following SI prefixes: 1 mF (millifarad, one thousandth (10 −3) of a farad) = 0.001 F = 1 000 μF = 1 000 000 000 pF

  5. Earth mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_mass

    Using the nearest metric prefix, the Earth mass is approximately six ronnagrams, or 6.0 Rg. [3] The Earth mass is a standard unit of mass in astronomy that is used to indicate the masses of other planets, including rocky terrestrial planets and exoplanets. One Solar mass is close to 333 000 Earth masses. The Earth mass excludes the mass of the ...

  6. Percentage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percentage

    To calculate a percentage of a percentage, convert both percentages to fractions of 100, or to decimals, and multiply them. For example, 50% of 40% is: ⁠ 50 / 100 ⁠ × ⁠ 40 / 100 ⁠ = 0.50 × 0.40 = 0.20 = ⁠ 20 / 100 ⁠ = 20%. It is not correct to divide by 100 and use the percent sign at the same time; it would literally imply ...

  8. Calipers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calipers

    The calipers in the diagram show a primary reading on the metric scale of about 2.475 cm (2.4 cm read from the main scale plus about 0.075 cm from the vernier scale). Calipers often have a "zero point error": meaning that the calipers do not read 0.000 cm when the jaws are closed.

  9. Mesh (scale) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesh_(scale)

    Mesh is a measurement of particle size often used in determining the particle-size distribution of a granular material.For example, a sample from a truckload of peanuts may be placed atop a mesh with 5 mm openings.
