  4. Viscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity

    It is a special case of the general definition of viscosity (see below), which can be expressed in coordinate-free form. Use of the Greek letter mu ( μ {\displaystyle \mu } ) for the dynamic viscosity (sometimes also called the absolute viscosity ) is common among mechanical and chemical engineers , as well as mathematicians and physicists.

  5. Micro- - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Micro-

    Micro (Greek letter μ, mu, non-italic) is a unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of 10 −6 (one millionth). [1] It comes from the Greek word μικρός (mikrós), meaning "small". [2] It is the only SI prefix which uses a character not from the Latin alphabet.
