Kilogram-force square second/meter

What is a kilogram-force square second/meter?

The kilogram-force second-squared per meter (the hyl or TME) is about 9.807 kg.

Origin of the kilogram-force square second/meter

The mass unit of the metric gravitational (technical) system.

Where it is used

Older continental European engineering practice.

When and where it was developed

Used in the metric technical system before SI adoption.

Metric / SI

Nanogram

What is a nanogram?

A nanogram (ng) equals 10^-12 kilogram.

Origin of the nanogram

From the SI prefix 'nano-' (from Greek 'nanos', dwarf).

Where it is used

Molecular biology, forensics, and toxicology.

When and where it was developed

The nano- prefix entered the SI in 1960.

Kilogram-force square second/meter to Nanogram conversion formula

The relationship between kilogram-force square second/meters and nanograms:

1 hyl = 9.80665e+12 ng
1 ng = 1.019716e-13 hyl

To convert kilogram-force square second/meters to nanograms, multiply the value in kilogram-force square second/meters by 9.80665e+12. To reverse, multiply nanograms by 1.019716e-13.
