[sci.physics] Tesla vs gauss, and other obscure units

jk3k+@andrew.cmu.edu (Joe Keane) (10/31/89)

But _everyone_ knows 1 Tesla = 10^4 gauss.  Fortunately, SI are slowly
taking over.

Question:  How do you usually measure thermal conductivity in British units?
Answer:  (Btu / hr) / (ft^2) / (*F / in)
Put that in your units program and smoke it!  I'll take watts / meter-*K.
