What does teragram/second measure?

Teragram per second measures mass flow rate on a very large scale, such as planetary or astrophysical mass transfers.

When should I use milligram/hour as a unit?

Milligram per hour is used for very small mass flow rates, typical in scientific dosing, emissions monitoring, and leakage testing.

Why convert Tg/s to mg/h?

Converting from Tg/s to mg/h helps translate extremely large-scale mass flows into small-scale values for detailed comparative analysis.
