Masha

What is a masha?

The masha equals about 0.972 gram, or eight ratti.

Origin of the masha

A traditional Indian mass unit in the ratti-masha-tola chain.

Where it is used

Small jewelry and gemstone weights in South Asia.

When and where it was developed

Part of the ancient Indian weight system dating to the Indus Valley era.

Scientific / Atomic

Planck Mass

What is a planck mass?

The Planck mass equals about 2.18E-8 kg, formed from the constants h-bar, c, and G.

Origin of the planck mass

Introduced by Max Planck in 1899 as part of a system of natural units.

Where it is used

Theoretical physics and quantum-gravity research.

When and where it was developed

Defined by Planck in 1899 from fundamental constants.

Masha to Planck Mass conversion formula

Note: this conversion uses a generally accepted modern value. Historical and regional definitions of this unit varied across times and places.

The relationship between mashas and planck mass:

1 masha = 44653.798622692 mP
1 mP = 2.239451e-5 masha

To convert mashas to planck mass, multiply the value in mashas by 44653.798622692. To reverse, multiply planck mass by 2.239451e-5.

Step-by-step: convert mashas to planck mass

  1. Write down the value in mashas (masha).
  2. Multiply that value by the factor 44653.798622692.
  3. The product is the equivalent value in planck mass (mP).
  4. To reverse, multiply the planck mass value by 2.239451e-5.

Worked examples

Example 1 — Convert 1 masha to mP:
1 × 44653.798622692 = 44653.798622692 mP

Example 2 — Convert 100 masha to mP:
100 × 44653.798622692 = 4465379.8622692041 mP

Real-world example — From microns to sub-micron features

One masha equals one thousand planck mass — the conversion semiconductor designers do constantly when comparing mask feature dimensions to actual transistor gate lengths.

1 masha × 44653.798622692 = 44653.798622692 mP

Real-world example — Infrared to visible-spectrum mapping

A 10-masha thermal infrared wavelength corresponds to a much larger number in planck mass, the unit favoured for ultraviolet and visible-light specifications.

10 masha × 44653.798622692 = 446537.9862269204 mP

Real-world example — Mid-micron to nanometer

3 mashas equals 3,000 planck mass — useful when relating mid-infrared wavelengths (typically quoted in microns) to nanometer-scale visible-light wavelength tables.

3 masha × 44653.798622692 = 133961.3958680761 mP
