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. ...
In the following formulae, BSA is expressed in m 2, weight (or, more properly, mass) W in kg, and height H in cm. The most widely used is the Du Bois formula, [4] [5] which has been shown to be equally as effective in estimating body fat in obese and non-obese patients, something the Body mass index fails to do. [6]
The BRI models the human body shape as an ellipse (an oval), with the intent to relate body girth with height to determine body roundness. A simple tape measure suffices to obtain waist circumference and height. [1] [2] Waist circumference and height can be in any unit of length, as long as they both use the same one. [1] [3
1 km 2 means one square kilometre, or the area of a square of 1000 m by 1000 m. In other words, an area of 1 000 000 square metres and not 1000 square metres. 2 Mm 3 means two cubic megametres, or the volume of two cubes of 1 000 000 m by 1 000 000 m by 1 000 000 m, i.e. 2 × 10 18 m 3, and not 2 000 000 cubic metres (2 × 10 6 m 3).
One newton equals one kilogram metre per second squared. Therefore, the unit metre per second squared is equivalent to newton per kilogram, N·kg −1, or N/kg. [2] Thus, the Earth's gravitational field (near ground level) can be quoted as 9.8 metres per second squared, or the equivalent 9.8 N/kg.
People are classified as obese when their body mass index (BMI)—a person's weight divided by the square of the person's height—is over 30 kg/m 2; the range 25–30 kg/m 2 is defined as overweight. [1] Some East Asian countries use lower values to calculate obesity. [11]
