Planck Mass
The Planck mass (m_P) is a fundamental physical constant representing a mass scale derived from natural units, approximately 2.176 × 10^-8 kilograms.
History/Origin
Introduced by Max Planck in 1899 as part of his system of natural units, the Planck mass emerged from combining fundamental constants to define a universal mass scale in theoretical physics.
Current Use
The Planck mass is primarily used in theoretical physics, especially in quantum gravity and high-energy physics, to express natural units and scale phenomena near the Planck scale.
Milligram
A milligram (mg) is a unit of mass equal to one thousandth of a gram.
History/Origin
The milligram has been used in scientific and medical contexts for precise measurement of small quantities, especially in pharmacology and chemistry, with its origins linked to the metric system established in the 18th century.
Current Use
Today, the milligram is widely used in pharmaceuticals, nutrition, and scientific research to measure small amounts of substances accurately.
