  4. Separative work units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separative_work_units

    Separative work – the amount of separation done by a Uranium enrichment process – is a function of the concentrations of the feedstock, the enriched output, and the depleted tailings; and is expressed in units which are so calculated as to be proportional to the total input (energy / machine operation time) and to the mass processed.

  5. Conversion of units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conversion_of_units

    In the cases where non-SI units are used, the numerical calculation of a formula can be done by first working out the factor, and then plug in the numerical values of the given/known quantities. For example, in the study of Bose–Einstein condensate , [ 6 ] atomic mass m is usually given in daltons , instead of kilograms , and chemical ...

    The tonne (/ t ʌ n / ⓘ or / t ɒ n /; symbol: t) is a unit of mass equal to 1,000 kilograms.It is a non-SI unit accepted for use with SI.It is also referred to as a metric ton in the United States to distinguish it from the non-metric units of the short ton (United States customary units) and the long ton (British imperial units).

  7. Freight rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freight_rate

    Many shipping services, especially air carriers, use dimensional weight for calculating the price, which takes into account both weight and volume of the cargo. For example, bulk coal long-distance rates in America are approximately 1 cent/ton-mile. [2] So a 100 car train, each carrying 100 tons, over a distance of 1000 miles, would cost $100,000.
