Units explained
Kilogram-force square second/meter
The kilogram-force second-squared per meter (the hyl or TME) is about 9.807 kg.
The mass unit of the metric gravitational (technical) system.
Older continental European engineering practice.
Used in the metric technical system before SI adoption.
Picogram
A picogram (pg) equals 10^-15 kilogram.
From the SI prefix 'pico-' (from Spanish 'pico', a small quantity).
Single-cell biology and ultratrace chemical analysis.
The pico- prefix entered the SI in 1960.
