Nanogram
A nanogram (ng) is a unit of mass equal to one billionth (10^-9) of a gram.
History/Origin
The nanogram was introduced as part of the metric system to measure extremely small quantities, especially in scientific and medical fields, as the need for precise measurement of tiny masses grew with technological advancements.
Current Use
Nanograms are commonly used in scientific research, pharmaceuticals, and environmental testing to measure very small amounts of substances accurately.
Kilogram-Force Square Second/meter
Kilogram-force square second per meter (kgf·s²/m) is a derived unit used to measure a specific combination of force, time, and length, often in specialized engineering contexts.
History/Origin
The unit originates from the kilogram-force, a gravitational force unit based on the kilogram mass, combined with time and length units for specific applications. It has been used historically in mechanical and engineering calculations before the widespread adoption of SI units.
Current Use
Currently, kgf·s²/m is rarely used in modern engineering, having been largely replaced by SI units. It may still appear in legacy systems or specialized fields requiring non-standard units.
