Stone (Uk)
A stone (st) is a British unit of weight equal to 14 pounds avoirdupois, primarily used for measuring body weight.
History/Origin
The stone has origins in medieval England, where it was used as a practical unit of weight for trade and commerce. Its use has persisted in the UK for measuring human body weight, despite the metric system's adoption elsewhere.
Current Use
Today, the stone is still commonly used in the UK and Ireland for personal weight measurement, especially in the context of health and fitness, although it is largely replaced by kilograms in official and international contexts.
Neutron Mass
The neutron mass (m_n) is the mass of a neutron, a subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom, approximately 1.675 × 10⁻²⁷ kilograms.
History/Origin
The neutron was discovered in 1932 by James Chadwick, leading to the understanding of its mass relative to protons and electrons. The neutron mass has been refined through experimental measurements in nuclear physics.
Current Use
The neutron mass is used in nuclear physics calculations, atomic mass units, and in the 'Weight and Mass' converter for scientific and educational purposes, as part of the 'Common Converters' category.
