  2. Newton (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    A newton is defined as 1 kgm/s 2 (it is a named derived unit defined in terms of the SI base units). [1]: 137 One newton is, therefore, the force needed to accelerate one kilogram of mass at the rate of one metre per second squared in the direction of the applied force.

  3. Kilogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilogram

    The International Committee for Weights and Measures (CIPM) approved a revision in November 2018 that defines the kilogram by defining the Planck constant to be exactly 6.626 070 15 × 10 −34 kgm 2 ⋅s −1, effectively defining the kilogram in terms of the second and the metre. The new definition took effect on 20 May 2019.

  4. SI derived unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SI_derived_unit

    The SI has special names for 22 of these coherent derived units (for example, hertz, the SI unit of measurement of frequency), but the rest merely reflect their derivation: for example, the square metre (m 2), the SI derived unit of area; and the kilogram per cubic metre (kg/m 3 or kgm −3), the SI derived unit of density.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(mass)

    An overview of ranges of mass. To help compare different orders of magnitude, the following lists describe various mass levels between 10 −67 kg and 10 52 kg. The least massive thing listed here is a graviton, and the most massive thing is the observable universe.

  7. Metric system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metric_system

    [1] An SI derived unit is a named combination of base units such as hertz (cycles per second), newton (kgm/s 2), and tesla (1 kg⋅s −2 ⋅A −1) and in the case of Celsius a shifted scale from Kelvin. Certain units have been officially accepted for use with the SI.

  8. List of metric units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_metric_units

    The sievert (Sv) is equal to one joule per kilogram (1 J⋅kg1). The katal (kat) is equal to one mole per second (1 mol⋅s −1). Furthermore, there are twenty-four metric prefixes that can be combined with any of these units except one (1) and kilogram (kg) to form further units of the SI. For mass, the same prefixes are applied to the ...
