Units explained
Atomic Mass Unit
One unified atomic mass unit (u) is defined as 1/12 the mass of a carbon-12 atom, about 1.6605E-27 kg.
Introduced to give atomic and molecular masses convenient numerical values.
Atomic, molecular, and nuclear physics and chemistry.
The unified (carbon-12) scale was adopted by IUPAC and IUPAP in 1960-1961.
Gerah (Biblical Hebrew)
The gerah was the smallest Hebrew weight, about 0.57 gram (one-twentieth of a shekel).
From a Hebrew word for a small grain or bean.
Ancient Israelite metrology.
Part of the smallest divisions of the biblical shekel.
