Planck Mass
The Planck mass (m_P) is a fundamental physical constant representing a mass scale derived from natural units, approximately 2.176 × 10^-8 kilograms.
History/Origin
Introduced by Max Planck in 1899 as part of his system of natural units, the Planck mass emerged from combining fundamental constants to define a universal mass scale in theoretical physics.
Current Use
The Planck mass is primarily used in theoretical physics, especially in quantum gravity and high-energy physics, to express natural units and scale phenomena near the Planck scale.
Decigram
A decigram (dg) is a unit of mass equal to one-tenth of a gram, or 0.1 grams.
History/Origin
The decigram is part of the metric system, which was developed in France in the late 18th century to standardize measurements. It has been used primarily in scientific and technical contexts to provide precise mass measurements.
Current Use
Decigrams are used in scientific, laboratory, and nutritional contexts where small mass measurements are required, although grams are more commonly used in everyday applications.
