  4. Music and mathematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Music_and_mathematics

    Music theory analyzes the pitch, timing, and structure of music. It uses mathematics to study elements of music such as tempo, chord progression, form, and meter. The attempt to structure and communicate new ways of composing and hearing music has led to musical applications of set theory, abstract algebra and number theory.

    While usually sub-second units are represented with SI prefixes on the second (e.g. milliseconds), this system can be extrapolated further, such that a "Third" would mean 1 ⁄ 60 of a second (16.7 milliseconds), and a "Fourth" would mean 1 ⁄ 60 of a third (278 microseconds), etc. These units are occasionally used in astronomy to denote angles.

  8. Kilogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilogram

    The kilogram (also spelled kilogramme [1]) is the base unit of mass in the International System of Units (SI), having the unit symbol kg. [1] The word "kilogram" is formed from the combination of the metric prefix kilo- (meaning one thousand) and gram ; [ 2 ] it is colloquially shortened to " kilo " (plural "kilos").
