  3. Chvorinov's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chvorinov's_rule

    The S.I. unit for the mold constant B is seconds per metre squared (s/m 2). [4] According to Askeland, the constant n is usually 2, however Degarmo claims it is between 1.5 and 2. [ 3 ] [ 5 ] The mold constant B can be calculated using the following formula:

  4. M squared - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M_squared

    The diameter of the multimode beam is then M times that of the embedded Gaussian beam everywhere, and the divergence is M times greater, but the wavefront curvature is the same. The multimode beam has M 2 times the beam area but 1/M 2 less beam intensity than the embedded beam. This holds true for any given optical system, and thus the minimum ...

  5. 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.

  6. Area density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Area_density

    A special type of area density is called column density (also columnar mass density or simply column density), denoted ρ A or σ.It is the mass of substance per unit area integrated along a path; [1] It is obtained integrating volumetric density over a column: [2] =.

  7. Sectional density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sectional_density

    SD kg/cm 2 is the sectional density in kilograms per square centimeter; m g is the mass of the projectile in grams; d cm is the diameter of the projectile in centimeters; For example, an M107 projectile with a mass of 43.2 kg and having a body diameter of 154.71 millimetres (15.471 cm) has a sectional density of: 4 · 43.2 / (π·154.71 2) = 0. ...

  8. Mass attenuation coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_attenuation_coefficient

    The SI unit of mass attenuation coefficient is the square metre per kilogram (m 2 /kg). Other common units include cm 2 /g (the most common unit for X-ray mass attenuation coefficients) and L⋅g −1 ⋅cm −1 (sometimes used in solution chemistry). Mass extinction coefficient is an old term for this quantity. [1]

    And finally, the centimetre and square centimetre are used in the normal way to measure thickness and area. The cm corresponds in the permeability equations to the thickness of the material whose permeability is being evaluated, the cm 3 STP cm −2 s −1 to the flux of gas through the material, and the cmHg to the pressure drop across the ...
