Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does milligram per cubic millimeter measure?
-
It measures density by dividing mass in milligrams by volume in cubic millimeters and is equal to 1 g/cm³ or 1000 kg/m³.
-
How is pound per UK gallon defined?
-
It expresses density as mass in avoirdupois pounds per UK gallon, where one UK gallon equals 4.54609 liters.
-
Why convert mg/mm³ to pound/gallon (UK)?
-
Conversions help translate microscale or biomedical densities into units common in UK engineering and industrial applications.
Key Terminology
-
Milligram per cubic millimeter (mg/mm³)
-
A density unit expressing mass in milligrams divided by volume in cubic millimeters; equivalent numerically to 1 g/cm³ or 1000 kg/m³.
-
Pound per gallon (UK)
-
A density unit expressing mass in avoirdupois pounds per UK (Imperial) gallon of volume, where 1 UK gallon is 4.54609 liters.
