Units explained
MeV/c2
MeV/c^2 expresses mass through mass-energy equivalence, E = mc^2; 1 MeV/c^2 is about 1.783E-30 kg.
Derived from Einstein's mass-energy relation, convenient for particle masses.
Particle physics, where masses are stated in MeV/c^2 or GeV/c^2.
Came into use with relativistic particle physics in the 20th century.
Ton (assay) (UK)
The assay ton (UK) equals about 32.667 grams, the long-ton analog of the assay ton.
The long-ton version of the assay-ton convenience unit.
Ore assaying in long-ton (imperial) contexts.
Adopted in assay laboratories using the long ton.
MeV/c2 to Ton (assay) (UK) conversion formula
The relationship between mev/c2 and tons (assay) (uk):
To convert mev/c2 to tons (assay) (uk), multiply the value in mev/c2 by 5.457128e-29. To reverse, multiply tons (assay) (uk) by 1.832466e+28.
