13List of unusual units of measurement — For units of measure primarily used in countries where English is not the main language, see the article specific to that country, a list of which can be found in the systems of measurement article. An unusual unit of measurement is a unit of… …
14Conversion of units — is the conversion between different units of measurement for the same quantity, typically through multiplicative conversion factors. Contents 1 Techniques 1.1 Process 1.2 Multiplication factors …
15MKS system of units — The MKS system of units is a physical system of units that expresses any given measurement using fundamental units of the metre, kilogram, and/or second (MKS). Historically the MKS system of units succeeded the cgs system of units and laid the… …
16Metre-tonne-second system of units — The metre tonne second or mts system of units is a system of physical units. It was invented in France, hence the unit names sthène and pièze, and was adopted only by the Soviet Union in 1933, and abolished there in 1955. It was built on the same …
17Natural units — In physics, natural units are physical units of measurement based only on universal physical constants. For example the elementary charge e is a natural unit of electric charge, or the speed of light c is a natural unit of speed. A purely natural …
18Planck units — are units of measurement named after the German physicist Max Planck, who first proposed them in 1899. They are an example of natural units, i.e. units of measurement designed so that certain fundamental physical constants are normalized to 1. In …
