unit:A
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/A
The \(\textit{ampere}\), often shortened to \(\textit{amp}\), is the SI unit of electric current and is one of the seven SI base units. \(\text{A}\ \equiv\ \text{amp (or ampere)}\ \equiv\ \frac{\text{C}}{\text{s}}\ \equiv\ \frac{\text{coulomb}}{\text{second}}\ \equiv\ \frac{\text{J}}{\text{Wb}}\ \equiv\ \frac{\text{joule}}{\text{weber}}\) Note that SI supports only the use of symbols and deprecates the use of any abbreviations for units.
unit:A-HR
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/A-HR
\(\textbf{Ampere hour}\) is a practical unit of electric charge equal to the charge flowing in one hour through a conductor passing one ampere. An ampere-hour or amp-hour (symbol \(Ah,\,AHr,\, A \cdot h, A h\)) is a unit of electric charge, with sub-units milliampere-hour (\(mAh\)) and milliampere second (\(mAs\)). One ampere-hour is equal to 3600 coulombs (ampere-seconds), the electric charge transferred by a steady current of one ampere for one hour. The ampere-hour is frequently used in measurements of electrochemical systems such as electroplating and electrical batteries. The commonly seen milliampere-hour (\(mAh\) or \(mA \cdot h\)) is one-thousandth of an ampere-hour (\(3.6 \,coulombs\)).

An acre-foot is a unit of volume commonly used in the United States in reference to large-scale water resources, such as reservoirs, aqueducts, canals, sewer flow capacity, and river flows. It is defined by the volume of one acre of surface area to a depth of one foot. Since the acre is defined as a chain by a furlong (\(66 ft \times 660 ft\)) the acre-foot is exactly \(43,560 cubic feet\). For irrigation water, the volume of \(1 ft \times 1 \; ac = 43,560 \; ft^{3} (1,233.482 \; m^{3}, 325,851 \; US gal)\).

URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/ANGSTROM
The \(Angstr\ddot{o}m\) is an internationally recognized unit of length equal to \(0.1 \,nanometre\) or \(1 \times 10^{-10}\,metres\). Although accepted for use, it is not formally defined within the International System of Units(SI). The angstrom is often used in the natural sciences to express the sizes of atoms, lengths of chemical bonds and the wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation, and in technology for the dimensions of parts of integrated circuits. It is also commonly used in structural biology.
unit:ANGSTROM3
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/ANGSTROM3
A unit that is a non-SI unit, specifically a CGS unit, of polarizability known informally as polarizability volume. The SI defined units for polarizability are C*m^2/V and can be converted to \(Angstr\ddot{o}m\)^3 by multiplying the SI value by 4 times pi times the vacuum permittivity and then converting the resulting m^3 to \(Angstr\ddot{o}m\)^3 through the SI base 10 conversion (multiplying by 10^-30).
unit:ARCMIN
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/ARCMIN
A minute of arc, arcminute, or minute arc (MOA), is a unit of angular measurement equal to one sixtieth (1/60) of one degree (circle/21,600), or \(\pi /10,800 radians\). In turn, a second of arc or arcsecond is one sixtieth (1/60) of one minute of arc. Since one degree is defined as one three hundred and sixtieth (1/360) of a rotation, one minute of arc is 1/21,600 of a rotation.
unit:ARCSEC
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/ARCSEC
"Arc Second" is a unit of angular measure, also called the \(\textit{second of arc}\), equal to \(1/60 \; arcminute\). One arcsecond is a very small angle: there are 1,296,000 in a circle. The SI recommends \(\textit{double prime}\) (\(''\)) as the symbol for the arcsecond. The symbol has become common in astronomy, where very small angles are stated in milliarcseconds (\(mas\)).
unit:ARE
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/ARE
An 'are' is a unit of area equal to 0.02471 acre and 100 centare.
unit:AT
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/AT
The \(\textit{ampere-turn}\) was the MKS unit of magnetomotive force (MMF), represented by a direct current of one ampere flowing in a single-turn loop in a vacuum. "Turns" refers to the winding number of an electrical conductor comprising an inductor. The ampere-turn was replaced by the SI unit, \(ampere\).
unit:AT-PER-IN
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/AT-PER-IN
The \(\textit{Ampere Turn per Inch}\) is a measure of magnetic field intensity and is equal to 12.5664 Oersted.
unit:AT-PER-M
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/AT-PER-M
The \(\textit{Ampere Turn per Metre}\) is the SI unit of magnetic field strength. One ampere per meter is equal to \(\pi/250\) oersteds (12.566 371 millioersteds) in CGS units. The ampere per meter is also the SI unit of "magnetization" in the sense of magnetic dipole moment per unit volume; in this context \(1 A/m = 0.001 emu per cubic centimeter\).
unit:ATM
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/ATM
The standard atmosphere (symbol: atm) is an international reference pressure defined as \(101.325 \,kPa\) and formerly used as unit of pressure. For practical purposes it has been replaced by the bar which is \(100 kPa\). The difference of about 1% is not significant for many applications, and is within the error range of common pressure gauges.
unit:ATM-M3-PER-MOL
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/ATM-M3-PER-MOL
A unit that consists of the power of the SI base unit metre with the exponent 3 multiplied by the unit atmosphere divided by the SI base unit mol.
unit:ATM_T
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/ATM_T
A technical atmosphere (symbol: at) is a non-SI unit of pressure equal to one kilogram-force per square centimeter. The symbol 'at' clashes with that of the katal (symbol: 'kat'), the SI unit of catalytic activity; a kilotechnical atmosphere would have the symbol 'kat', indistinguishable from the symbol for the katal. It also clashes with that of the non-SI unit, the attotonne, but that unit would be more likely be rendered as the equivalent SI unit. Assay ton (abbreviation 'AT') is not a unit of measurement, but a standard quantity used in assaying ores of precious metals; it is \(29 1D6 \,grams\) (short assay ton) or \(32 2D3 \,grams\) (long assay ton), the amount which bears the same ratio to a milligram as a short or long ton bears to a troy ounce. In other words, the number of milligrams of a particular metal found in a sample of this size gives the number of troy ounces contained in a short or long ton of ore.
unit:AU
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/AU
An astronomical unit (abbreviated as AU, au, a.u., or ua) is a unit of length equal to \(149,597,870,700 metres\) (\(92,955,807.273 mi\)) or approximately the mean Earth Sun distance.
unit:A_Ab
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/A_Ab

unit:BAR
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/BAR
The bar is a non-SI unit of pressure, defined by the IUPAC as exactly equal to \(100,000\,Pa\). It is about equal to the atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level, and since 1982 the IUPAC has recommended that the standard for atmospheric pressure should be harmonized to \(100,000\,Pa = 1 \,bar \approx 750.0616827\, Torr\). Units derived from the bar are the megabar (symbol: Mbar), kilobar (symbol: kbar), decibar (symbol: dbar), centibar (symbol: cbar), and millibar (symbol: mbar or mb). They are not SI or cgs units, but they are accepted for use with the SI.

A barad is a dyne per square centimetre (\(dyn \cdot cm^{-2}\)), and is equal to \(0.1 Pa \) (\(1 \, micro \, bar\), \(0.000014504 \, p.s.i.\)). Note that this is precisely the microbar, the confusable bar being related in size to the normal atmospheric pressure, at \(100\,dyn \cdot cm^{-2}\). Accordingly barad was not abbreviated, so occurs prefixed as in \(cbarad = centibarad\). Despite being the coherent unit for pressure in c.g.s., barad was probably much less common than the non-coherent bar. Barad is sometimes called \(barye\), a name also used for \(bar\).
unit:BARN
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/BARN
A barn (symbol b) is a unit of area. Originally used in nuclear physics for expressing the cross sectional area of nuclei and nuclear reactions, today it is used in all fields of high energy physics to express the cross sections of any scattering process, and is best understood as a measure of the probability of interaction between small particles. A barn is defined as \(10^{-28} m^2 (100 fm^2)\) and is approximately the cross sectional area of a uranium nucleus. The barn is also the unit of area used in nuclear quadrupole resonance and nuclear magnetic resonance to quantify the interaction of a nucleus with an electric field gradient. While the barn is not an SI unit, it is accepted for use with the SI due to its continued use in particle physics.

unit:BQ
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/BQ
The SI derived unit of activity, usually meaning radioactivity. "Radioactivity" is caused when atoms disintegrate, ejecting energetic particles. One becquerel is the radiation caused by one disintegration per second; this is equivalent to about 27.0270 picocuries (pCi). The unit is named for a French physicist, Antoine-Henri Becquerel (1852-1908), the discoverer of radioactivity. Note: both the becquerel and the hertz are basically defined as one event per second, yet they measure different things. The hertz is used to measure the rates of events that happen periodically in a fixed and definite cycle. The becquerel is used to measure the rates of events that happen sporadically and unpredictably, not in a definite cycle.

URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/BTU_IT
\(\textit{British Thermal Unit}\) (BTU or Btu) is a traditional unit of energy equal to about \(1.0550558526 \textit{ kilojoule}\). It is approximately the amount of energy needed to heat 1 pound (0.454 kg) of water from \(39 \,^{\circ}{\rm F}\) to \(40 \,^{\circ}{\rm F}\) . The unit is most often used in the power, steam generation, heating and air conditioning industries. In scientific contexts the BTU has largely been replaced by the SI unit of energy, the \(joule\), though it may be used as a measure of agricultural energy production (BTU/kg). It is still used unofficially in metric English-speaking countries (such as Canada), and remains the standard unit of classification for air conditioning units manufactured and sold in many non-English-speaking metric countries.

The candela per square metre (\(cd/m^2\)) is the derived SI unit of luminance. The unit is based on the candela, the SI unit of luminous intensity, and the square metre, the SI unit of area. Nit (nt) is a deprecated non-SI name also used for this unit (\(1 nit = 1 cd/m^2\)). As a measure of light emitted per unit area, this unit is frequently used to specify the brightness of a display device. Most consumer desktop liquid crystal displays have luminances of 200 to 300 \(cd/m^2\); the sRGB spec for monitors targets 80 cd/m2. HDTVs range from 450 to about 1000 cd/m2. Typically, calibrated monitors should have a brightness of \(120 cd/m^2\). \(Nit\) is believed to come from the Latin word nitere, to shine.

The length of time which passes between a given fixed star in the sky crossing a given projected meridian (line of longitude). The sidereal day is \(23 h 56 m 4.1 s\), slightly shorter than the solar day because the Earth 's orbital motion about the Sun means the Earth has to rotate slightly more than one turn with respect to the "fixed" stars in order to reach the same Earth-Sun orientation. Another way of thinking about the difference is that it amounts to \(1/365.2425^{th}\) of a day per day, since even if the Earth did not spin on its axis at all, the Sun would appear to make one rotation around the Earth as the Earth completed a single orbit (which takes one year).

URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/DECADE
One decade is a factor of 10 difference between two numbers (an order of magnitude difference) measured on a logarithmic scale. It is especially useful when referring to frequencies and when describing frequency response of electronic systems, such as audio amplifiers and filters. The factor-of-ten in a decade can be in either direction: so one decade up from 100 Hz is 1000 Hz, and one decade down is 10 Hz. The factor-of-ten is what is important, not the unit used, so \(3.14 rad/s\) is one decade down from \(31.4 rad/s\).

A square degree is a non-SI unit measure of solid angle. It is denoted in various ways, including deg, sq. deg. and \(\circ^2\). Just as degrees are used to measure parts of a circle, square degrees are used to measure parts of a sphere. Analogous to one degree being equal to \(\pi /180 radians\), a square degree is equal to (\(\pi /180)\) or about 1/3283 steradian. The number of square degrees in a whole sphere is or approximately 41 253 deg. This is the total area of the 88 constellations in the list of constellations by area. For example, observed from the surface of the Earth, the Moon has a diameter of approximately \(0.5^\circ\), so it covers a solid angle of approximately 0.196 deg, which is \(4.8 \times 10\) of the total sky sphere.

\(\textit{Celsius}\), also known as centigrade, is a scale and unit of measurement for temperature. It can refer to a specific temperature on the Celsius scale as well as a unit to indicate a temperature interval, a difference between two temperatures or an uncertainty. This definition fixes the magnitude of both the degree Celsius and the kelvin as precisely 1 part in 273.16 (approximately 0.00366) of the difference between absolute zero and the triple point of water. Thus, it sets the magnitude of one degree Celsius and that of one kelvin as exactly the same.

A customary logarithmic measure most commonly used (in various ways) for measuring sound.Sound is measured on a logarithmic scale. Informally, if one sound is \(1\,bel\) (10 decibels) "louder" than another, this means the louder sound is 10 times louder than the fainter one. A difference of 20 decibels corresponds to an increase of 10 x 10 or 100 times in intensity. The beginning of the scale, 0 decibels, can be set in different ways, depending on exactly the aspect of sound being measured. For sound intensity (the power of the sound waves per unit of area) \(0\,decibel\) is equal to \(1\,picoWatts\,per\,Metre\,Squared\). This corresponds approximately to the faintest sound that can be detected by a person who has good hearing. For sound pressure (the pressure exerted by the sound waves) 0 decibels equals \(20\,micropascals\,RMS\), and for sound power \(0\,decibels\) sometimes equals \(1\,picoWatt\). In all cases, one decibel equals \(\approx\,0.115129\,neper\).
unit:DeciBAR

The bar is a non-SI unit of pressure, defined by the IUPAC as exactly equal to 100,000 Pa. It is about equal to the atmospheric pressure on Earth at sea level, and since 1982 the IUPAC has recommended that the standard for atmospheric pressure should be harmonized to \(100,000 Pa = 1 bar \approx 750.0616827 Torr\). Units derived from the bar are the megabar (symbol: Mbar), kilobar (symbol: kbar), decibar (symbol: dbar), centibar (symbol: cbar), and millibar (symbol: mbar or mb). They are not SI or cgs units, but they are accepted for use with the SI.

Denier or den is a unit of measure for the linear mass density of fibers. It is defined as the mass in grams per 9,000 meters. In the International System of Units the tex is used instead (see below). The denier is based on a natural standard: a single strand of silk is approximately one denier. A 9,000-meter strand of silk weighs about one gram. The term denier is from the French denier, a coin of small value (worth 1/12 of a sou). Applied to yarn, a denier was held to be equal in weight to 1/24 of an ounce. The term microdenier is used to describe filaments that weigh less than one gram per 9,000 meter length.

unit:FARAD
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/FARAD
The SI unit of electric capacitance. Very early in the study of electricity scientists discovered that a pair of conductors separated by an insulator can store a much larger charge than an isolated conductor can store. The better the insulator, the larger the charge that the conductors can hold. This property of a circuit is called capacitance, and it is measured in farads. One farad is defined as the ability to store one coulomb of charge per volt of potential difference between the two conductors. This is a natural definition, but the unit it defines is very large. In practical circuits, capacitance is often measured in microfarads, nanofarads, or sometimes even in picofarads (10-12 farad, or trillionths of a farad). The unit is named for the British physicist Michael Faraday (1791-1867), who was known for his work in electricity and electrochemistry.

unit:GM
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/GM
A unit of mass in the metric system. The name comes from the Greek gramma, a small weight identified in later Roman and Byzantine times with the Latin scripulum or scruple (the English scruple is equal to about 1.3 grams). The gram was originally defined to be the mass of one cubic centimeter of pure water, but to provide precise standards it was necessary to construct physical objects of specified mass. One gram is now defined to be 1/1000 of the mass of the standard kilogram, a platinum-iridium bar carefully guarded by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in Paris for more than a century. (The kilogram, rather than the gram, is considered the base unit of mass in the SI.) The gram is a small mass, equal to about 15.432 grains or 0.035 273 966 ounce.

unit:Gs
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/Gs
The gauss, abbreviated as \(G\), is the cgs unit of measurement of a magnetic field \(B\), which is also known as the "magnetic flux density" or the "magnetic induction". One gauss is defined as one maxwell per square centimeter; it equals \(10^{-4} tesla\) (or \(100 micro T\)). The Gauss is identical to maxwells per square centimetre; technically defined in a three-dimensional system, it corresponds in the SI, with its extra base unit the ampere. The gauss is quite small by earthly standards, 1 Gs being only about four times Earth's flux density, but it is subdivided, with \(1 gauss = 105 gamma\). This unit of magnetic induction is also known as the \(\textit{abtesla}\).
unit:H
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/H
The SI unit of electric inductance. A changing magnetic field induces an electric current in a loop of wire (or in a coil of many loops) located in the field. Although the induced voltage depends only on the rate at which the magnetic flux changes, measured in webers per second, the amount of the current depends also on the physical properties of the coil. A coil with an inductance of one henry requires a flux of one weber for each ampere of induced current. If, on the other hand, it is the current which changes, then the induced field will generate a potential difference within the coil: if the inductance is one henry a current change of one ampere per second generates a potential difference of one volt. The henry is a large unit; inductances in practical circuits are measured in millihenrys (mH) or microhenrys (u03bc H). The unit is named for the American physicist Joseph Henry (1797-1878), one of several scientists who discovered independently how magnetic fields can be used to generate alternating currents. \(\text{H} \; \equiv \; \text{henry}\; \equiv\; \frac{\text{Wb}}{\text{A}}\; \equiv\; \frac{\text{weber}}{\text{amp}}\; \equiv\ \frac{\text{V}\cdot\text{s}}{\text{A}}\; \equiv\; \frac{\text{volt} \cdot \text{second}}{\text{amp}}\; \equiv\ \Omega\cdot\text{s}\; \equiv\; \text{ohm.second}\)

The hour (common symbol: h or hr) is a unit of measurement of time. In modern usage, an hour comprises 60 minutes, or 3,600 seconds. It is approximately 1/24 of a mean solar day. An hour in the Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) time standard can include a negative or positive leap second, and may therefore have a duration of 3,599 or 3,601 seconds for adjustment purposes. Although it is not a standard defined by the International System of Units, the hour is a unit accepted for use with SI, represented by the symbol h.

unit:HR_Sidereal
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/HR_Sidereal
Sidereal time is a time-keeping system astronomers use to keep track of the direction to point their telescopes to view a given star in the night sky. A mean sidereal day is about 23 h 56 m 4.1 s in length. However, due to variations in the rotation rate of the Earth, the rate of an ideal sidereal clock deviates from any simple multiple of a civil clock. In practice, the difference is kept track of by the difference UTC-UT1, which is measured by radio telescopes and kept on file and available to the public at the IERS and at the United States Naval Observatory. A Sidereal Hour is \(1/24^{th}\) of a Sidereal Day. A mean sidereal day is 23 hours, 56 minutes, 4.0916 seconds (23.9344699 hours or 0.99726958 mean solar days), the time it takes Earth to make one rotation relative to the vernal equinox. (Due to nutation, an actual sidereal day is not quite so constant.) The vernal equinox itself precesses slowly westward relative to the fixed stars, completing one revolution in about 26,000 years, so the misnamed sidereal day ("sidereal" is derived from the Latin sidus meaning "star") is 0.0084 seconds shorter than Earth's period of rotation relative to the fixed stars.
unit:HZ

unit:HZ-PER-V
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/HZ-PER-V
In the Hertz per Volt standard the frequency of the note is directly related to the voltage. A pitch of a note goes up one octave when its frequency doubles, meaning that the voltage will have to double for every octave rise. Depending on the footage (octave) selected, nominally one volt gives 1000Hz, two volts 2000Hz and so on. In terms of notes, bottom C would be 0.25 volts, the next C up would be 0.5 volts, then 1V, 2V, 4V, 8V for the following octaves. This system was used mainly by Yamaha and Korg.

The joule per mole (symbol: \(J\cdot mol^{-1}\)) is an SI derived unit of energy per amount of material. Energy is measured in joules, and the amount of material is measured in moles. Physical quantities measured in \(J\cdot mol^{-1}\)) usually describe quantities of energy transferred during phase transformations or chemical reactions. Division by the number of moles facilitates comparison between processes involving different quantities of material and between similar processes involving different types of materials. The meaning of such a quantity is always context-dependent and, particularly for chemical reactions, is dependent on the (possibly arbitrary) definition of a 'mole' for a particular process.

The magnetic moment of a magnet is a quantity that determines the force that the magnet can exert on electric currents and the torque that a magnetic field will exert on it. A loop of electric current, a bar magnet, an electron, a molecule, and a planet all have magnetic moments. The unit for magnetic moment is not a base unit in the International System of Units (SI) and it can be represented in more than one way. For example, in the current loop definition, the area is measured in square meters and I is measured in amperes, so the magnetic moment is measured in ampere-square meters (A m2). In the equation for torque on a moment, the torque is measured in joules and the magnetic field in tesla, so the moment is measured in Joules per Tesla (J u00b7T-1). These two representations are equivalent: 1 A u00b7m2 = 1 J u00b7T-1.

\(The SI base unit of temperature, previously called the degree Kelvin. One kelvin represents the same temperature difference as one degree Celsius. In 1967 the General Conference on Weights and Measures defined the temperature of the triple point of water (the temperature at which water exists simultaneously in the gaseous, liquid, and solid states) to be exactly 273.16 kelvins. Since this temperature is also equal to 0.01 u00b0C, the temperature in kelvins is always equal to 273.15 plus the temperature in degrees Celsius. The kelvin equals exactly 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit. The unit is named for the British mathematician and physicist William Thomson (1824-1907), later known as Lord Kelvin after he was named Baron Kelvin of Largs.\)

The knot (pronounced 'not') is a unit of speed equal to one nautical mile (1.852 km) per hour, approximately 1.151 mph. The abbreviation \(kn\) is preferred by the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO), which includes every major sea-faring nation; however, the abbreviations kt (singular) and kts (plural) are also widely used. However, use of the abbreviation kt for knot conflicts with the SI symbol for kilotonne. The knot is a non-SI unit accepted for use with the International System of Units (SI). Worldwide, the knot is used in meteorology, and in maritime and air navigation - for example, a vessel travelling at 1 knot along a meridian travels one minute of geographic latitude in one hour. Etymologically, the term knot derives from counting the number of knots in the line that unspooled from the reel of a chip log in a specific time.

unit:LM
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/LM
The SI unit for measuring the flux of light being produced by a light source or received by a surface. The intensity of a light source is measured in candelas. One lumen represents the total flux of light emitted, equal to the intensity in candelas multiplied by the solid angle in steradians into which the light is emitted. A full sphere has a solid angle of \(4\cdot\pi\) steradians. A light source that uniformly radiates one candela in all directions has a total luminous flux of \(1 cd\cdot 4 \pi sr = 4 \pi cd \cdot sr \approx 12.57 \; \text{lumens}\). "Lumen" is a Latin word for light.

unit:MIL_Circ
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/MIL_Circ
A circular mil is a unit of area, equal to the area of a circle with a diameter of one mil (one thousandth of an inch). It is a convenient unit for referring to the area of a wire with a circular cross section, because the area in circular mils can be calculated without reference to pi (\(\pi\)). The area in circular mils, A, of a circle with a diameter of d mils, is given by the formula: Electricians in Canada and the United States are familiar with the circular mil because the National Electrical Code (NEC) uses the circular mil to define wire sizes larger than 0000 AWG. In many NEC publications and uses, large wires may be expressed in thousands of circular mils, which is abbreviated in two different ways: MCM or kcmil. For example, one common wire size used in the NEC has a cross-section of 250,000 circular mils, written as 250 kcmil or 250 MCM, which is the first size larger than 0000 AWG used within the NEC.

A minute is a unit of measurement of time. The minute is a unit of time equal to 1/60 (the first sexagesimal fraction of an hour or 60 seconds. In the UTC time scale, a minute on rare occasions has 59 or 61 seconds; see leap second. The minute is not an SI unit; however, it is accepted for use with SI units. The SI symbol for minute or minutes is min (for time measurement) or the prime symbol after a number, e.g. 5' (for angle measurement, even if it is informally used for time).
unit:MIN_Sidereal
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/MIN_Sidereal
Sidereal time is a time-keeping system astronomers use to keep track of the direction to point their telescopes to view a given star in the night sky. A mean sidereal day is about \(23 h 56 m 4.1 s\) in length. However, due to variations in the rotation rate of the Earth, the rate of an ideal sidereal clock deviates from any simple multiple of a civil clock. In practice, the difference is kept track of by the difference UTC-UT1, which is measured by radio telescopes and kept on file and available to the public at the IERS and at the United States Naval Observatory. A Sidereal Minute is \(1/60^{th}\) of a Sidereal Hour, which is \(1/24^{th}\) of a Sidereal Day.
unit:MI_N

A unit of distance used primarily at sea and in aviation. The nautical mile is defined to be the average distance on the Earth's surface represented by one minute of latitude. In 1929 an international conference in Monaco redefined the nautical mile to be exactly 1852 meters or 6076.115 49 feet, a distance known as the international nautical mile. The international nautical mile equals about 1.1508 statute miles. There are usually 3 nautical miles in a league. The unit is designed to equal 1/60 degree, although actual degrees of latitude vary from about 59.7 to 60.3 nautical miles. (Note: using data from the Geodetic Reference System 1980, the "true" length of a nautical mile would be 1852.216 meters.)

unit:MOL
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/MOL
The mole is a unit of measurement used in chemistry to express amounts of a chemical substance. The official definition, adopted as part of the SI system in 1971, is that one mole of a substance contains just as many elementary entities (atoms, molecules, ions, or other kinds of particles) as there are atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12 (carbon-12 is the most common atomic form of carbon, consisting of atoms having 6 protons and 6 neutrons). This corresponds to a value of \(6.02214179(30) \times 10^{23}\) elementary entities of the substance. It is one of the base units in the International System of Units, and has the unit symbol \(mol\). A Mole is the SI base unit of the amount of a substance (as distinct from its mass or weight). Moles measure the actual number of atoms or molecules in an object. An earlier name is gram molecular weight, because one mole of a chemical compound is the same number of grams as the molecular weight of a molecule of that compound measured in atomic mass units.

A pica is a typographic unit of measure corresponding to 1/72 of its respective foot, and therefore to 1/6 of an inch. The pica contains 12 point units of measure. Notably, Adobe PostScript promoted the pica unit of measure that is the standard in contemporary printing, as in home computers and printers. Usually, pica measurements are represented with an upper-case 'P' with an upper-right-to-lower-left virgule (slash) starting in the upper right portion of the 'P' and ending at the lower left of the upright portion of the 'P'; essentially drawing a virgule (/) through a 'P'. Note that these definitions are different from a typewriter's pica setting, which denotes a type size of ten characters per horizontal inch.

unit:PERMITTIVITY_REL
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/PERMITTIVITY_REL
The \(\textit{relative permittivity}\) of a material under given conditions reflects the extent to which it concentrates electrostatic lines of flux. In technical terms, it is the ratio of the amount of electrical energy stored in a material by an applied voltage, relative to that stored in a vacuum. Likewise, it is also the ratio of the capacitance of a capacitor using that material as a dielectric, compared to a similar capacitor that has a vacuum as its dielectric. Relative permittivity is a dimensionless number that is in general complex. The imaginary portion of the permittivity corresponds to a phase shift of the polarization P relative to E and leads to the attenuation of electromagnetic waves passing through the medium.
\(\epsilon_r(w) = \frac{\epsilon(w)}{\epsilon_O}\)\ where \(\epsilon_r(w)\) is the complex frequency-dependent absolute permittivity of the material, and \(\epsilon_O\) is the vacuum permittivity.

The \(rad\) is a deprecated unit of absorbed radiation dose, defined as \(1 rad = 0.01\,Gy = 0.01 J/kg\). It was originally defined in CGS units in 1953 as the dose causing 100 ergs of energy to be absorbed by one gram of matter. It has been replaced by the gray in most of the world. A related unit, the \(roentgen\), was formerly used to quantify the number of rad deposited into a target when it was exposed to radiation. The F-factor can used to convert between rad and roentgens. The material absorbing the radiation can be human tissue or silicon microchips or any other medium (for example, air, water, lead shielding, etc.).
unit:RAYL
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/RAYL
The \(Rayl\) is one of two units of specific acoustic impedance. When sound waves pass through any physical substance the pressure of the waves causes the particles of the substance to move. The sound specific impedance is the ratio between the sound pressure and the particle velocity it produces. The specific impedance is one rayl if unit pressure produces unit velocity. It is defined as follows: \(1\; rayl = 1 dyn\cdot s\cdot cm^{-3}\) Or in SI as: \(1 \; rayl = 10^{-1}Pa\cdot s\cdot m^{-1}\), which equals \(10\,N \cdot s\cdot m^{-3}\).

A Rem is a deprecated unit used to measure the biological effects of ionizing radiation. The rem is defined as equal to 0.01 sievert, which is the more commonly used unit outside of the United States. Equivalent dose, effective dose, and committed dose can all be measured in units of rem. These quantities are products of the absorbed dose in rads and weighting factors. These factors must be selected for each exposure situation; there is no universally applicable conversion constant from rad to rem. A rem is a large dose of radiation, so the millirem (mrem), which is one thousandth of a rem, is often used for the dosages commonly encountered, such as the amount of radiation received from medical x-rays and background sources.

unit:S
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/S
\(\textbf{Siemens}\) is the SI unit of electric conductance, susceptance, and admittance. The most important property of a conductor is the amount of current it will carry when a voltage is applied. Current flow is opposed by resistance in all circuits, and by also by reactance and impedance in alternating current circuits. Conductance, susceptance, and admittance are the inverses of resistance, reactance, and impedance, respectively. To measure these properties, the siemens is the reciprocal of the ohm. In other words, the conductance, susceptance, or admittance, in siemens, is simply 1 divided by the resistance, reactance or impedance, respectively, in ohms. The unit is named for the German electrical engineer Werner von Siemens (1816-1892). \(\ \text{Siemens}\equiv\frac{\text{A}}{\text{V}}\equiv\frac{\text{amp}}{\text{volt}}\equiv\frac{\text{F}}{\text {s}}\equiv\frac{\text{farad}}{\text{second}}\)

The \(Second\) (symbol: \(s\)) is the base unit of time in the International System of Units (SI) and is also a unit of time in other systems of measurement. Between the years1000 (when al-Biruni used seconds) and 1960 the second was defined as \(1/86400\) of a mean solar day (that definition still applies in some astronomical and legal contexts). Between 1960 and 1967, it was defined in terms of the period of the Earth's orbit around the Sun in 1900, but it is now defined more precisely in atomic terms. Under the International System of Units (via the International Committee for Weights and Measures, or CIPM), since 1967 the second has been defined as the duration of \({9192631770}\) periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium 133 atom.In 1997 CIPM added that the periods would be defined for a caesium atom at rest, and approaching the theoretical temperature of absolute zero, and in 1999, it included corrections from ambient radiation.

\(The \textit{stilb (sb)} is the CGS unit of luminance for objects that are not self-luminous. It is equal to one candela per square centimeter or 10 nits (candelas per square meter). The name was coined by the French physicist A. Blondel around 1920. It comes from the Greek word stilbein meaning 'to glitter'. It was in common use in Europe up to World War I. In North America self-explanatory terms such as candle per square inch and candle per square meter were more common. The unit has since largely been replaced by the SI unit: candela per square meter.\)

unit:T
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/T
The SI unit of flux density (or field intensity) for magnetic fields (also called the magnetic induction). The intensity of a magnetic field can be measured by placing a current-carrying conductor in the field. The magnetic field exerts a force on the conductor, a force which depends on the amount of the current and on the length of the conductor. One tesla is defined as the field intensity generating one newton of force per ampere of current per meter of conductor. Equivalently, one tesla represents a magnetic flux density of one weber per square meter of area. A field of one tesla is quite strong: the strongest fields available in laboratories are about 20 teslas, and the Earth's magnetic flux density, at its surface, is about 50 microteslas. The tesla, defined in 1958, honors the Serbian-American electrical engineer Nikola Tesla (1856-1943), whose work in electromagnetic induction led to the first practical generators and motors using alternating current. \(T = V\cdot s \cdot m^{-2} = N\cdot A^{-1}\cdot m^{-1} = Wb\cdot m^{-1} = kg \cdot C^{-1}\cdot s^{-1}\cdot A^{-1} = kg \cdot s^{-2}\cdot A^{-1} = N \cdot s \cdot C^{-1}\cdot m^{-1}\) where, \(\\\) \(A\) = ampere, \(C\)=coulomb, \(m\) = meter, \(N\) = newton, \(s\) = second, \(T\) = tesla, \(Wb\) = weber

In the UK and most Commonwealth countries, a tablespoon is a type of large spoon usually used for serving. In countries where a tablespoon is a serving spoon, the nearest equivalent to the US tablespoon is either the dessert spoon or the soup spoon. A tablespoonful, nominally the capacity of one tablespoon, is commonly used as a measure of volume in cooking. It is abbreviated as T, tb, tbs, tbsp, tblsp, or tblspn. The capacity of ordinary tablespoons is not regulated by law and is subject to considerable variation. In most countries one level tablespoon is approximately 15 mL; in Australia it is 20 mL.

Tex is a unit of measure for the linear mass density of fibers and is defined as the mass in grams per 1000 meters. Tex is more likely to be used in Canada and Continental Europe, while denier remains more common in the United States and United Kingdom. The unit code is 'tex'. The most commonly used unit is actually the decitex, abbreviated dtex, which is the mass in grams per 10,000 meters. When measuring objects that consist of multiple fibers the term 'filament tex' is sometimes used, referring to the mass in grams per 1000 meters of a single filament. Tex is used for measuring fiber size in many products, including cigarette filters, optical cable, yarn, and fabric.

"statvolt" is a unit of voltage and electrical potential used in the cgs system of units. The conversion to the SI system is \(1 statvolt = 299.792458 volts\). The conversion factor 299.792458 is simply the numerical value of the speed of light in m/s divided by 106. The statvolt is also defined in the cgs system as \(1 erg / esu\). It is a useful unit for electromagnetism because one statvolt per centimetre is equal in magnitude to one gauss. Thus, for example, an electric field of one statvolt/cm has the same energy density as a magnetic field of one gauss. Likewise, a plane wave propagating in a vacuum has perpendicular electric and magnetic fields such that for every gauss of magnetic field intensity there is one statvolt/cm of electric field intensity. The abvolt is another option for a unit of voltage in the cgs system.

This unit is used both in mechanics and in electricity, so it links the mechanical and electrical units to one another. In mechanical terms, one watt equals about 0.001 341 02 horsepower (hp) or 0.737 562 foot-pound per second (lbf/s). In electrical terms, one watt is the power produced by a current of one ampere flowing through an electric potential of one volt. The name of the unit honors James Watt (1736-1819), the British engineer whose improvements to the steam engine are often credited with igniting the Industrial Revolution.

unit:WB
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/WB
The SI unit of magnetic flux. "Flux" is the rate (per unit of time) at which something crosses a surface perpendicular to the flow. The weber is a large unit, equal to \(10^{8}\) maxwells, and practical fluxes are usually fractions of one weber. The weber is the magnetic flux which, linking a circuit of one turn, would produce in it an electromotive force of 1 volt if it were reduced to zero at a uniform rate in 1 second. In SI base units, the dimensions of the weber are \((kg \cdot m^2)/(s^2 \cdot A)\). The weber is commonly expressed in terms of other derived units as the Tesla-square meter (\(T \cdot m^2\)), volt-seconds (\(V \cdot s\)), or joules per ampere (\(J/A\)).

URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/YR
A year is any of the various periods equated with one passage of Earth about the Sun, and hence of roughly 365 days. The familiar calendar has a mixture of 365- and 366-day years, reflecting the fact that the time for one complete passage takes about 365¼ days; the precise value for this figure depends on the manner of defining the year.

unit:YR_TROPICAL
URI: http://qudt.org/vocab/unit/YR_TROPICAL
A tropical year (also known as a solar year), for general purposes, is the length of time that the Sun takes to return to the same position in the cycle of seasons, as seen from Earth; for example, the time from vernal equinox to vernal equinox, or from summer solstice to summer solstice. Because of the precession of the equinoxes, the seasonal cycle does not remain exactly synchronised with the position of the Earth in its orbit around the Sun. As a consequence, the tropical year is about 20 minutes shorter than the time it takes Earth to complete one full orbit around the Sun as measured with respect to the fixed stars. Since antiquity, astronomers have progressively refined the definition of the tropical year, and currently define it as the time required for the mean Sun's tropical longitude (longitudinal position along the ecliptic relative to its position at the vernal equinox) to increase by 360 degrees (that is, to complete one full seasonal circuit).
