| kilopascal | kPa | The pascal (symbol: Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength. It is defined as one newton per square metre.[1] It is named after the French polymath Blaise Pascal. | |
| Joule | J | The joule (/dʒuːl/); symbol: J), is a derived unit of energy in the International System of Units.[1] It is equal to the energy transferred to (or work done on) an object when a force of one newton acts on that object in the direction of its motion throug... | |
| Kilowatt | kW | Kilowatt (symbol: kW) is a unit of electric power. | |
| Ampere | A | a unit of electric current equal to a flow of one coulomb per second. | |
| Ampere | kA | a unit of electric current equal to a flow of one coulomb per second. | |
| Megapascal | MPa | The pascal (symbol: Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure used to quantify internal pressure, stress, Young's modulus and ultimate tensile strength. It is defined as one newton per square metre.[1] It is named after the French polymath Blaise Pascal. | |
| meters per minute. | m/min | meters per minute. | |
| Tonne | tonne | The tonne (non-preferred SI derived unit; SI symbol: t), commonly referred to as the metric ton in the United States, is a non-SI metric unit of mass equal to 1,000 kilograms; or one megagram (Mg); it is equivalent to approximately 2,204.6 pounds, 1.102 s... | |
| Newton metre | N m | The newton metre (also newton-metre, symbol N m or N⋅m)[1] is a unit of torque (also called "moment") in the SI system. One newton metre is equal to the torque resulting from a force of one newton applied perpendicularly to the end of a moment arm that is... | |
| Inertia | kg. m² | Inertia is the resistance, of any physical object, to any change in its velocity. This includes changes to the object's speed, or direction of motion. | |
