Mina (Biblical Hebrew)
The mina is an ancient unit of weight used in biblical times, primarily in the Hebrew and surrounding cultures, typically equivalent to about 50 shekels or roughly 50 grams.
History/Origin
The mina originates from ancient Near Eastern civilizations, including the Hebrew, Phoenician, and Babylonian cultures. It was widely used in biblical texts and persisted through various periods as a standard measure of weight for precious metals and goods.
Current Use
Today, the mina is largely obsolete as a unit of measurement. It is primarily referenced in historical, religious, and scholarly contexts related to biblical times and ancient history.
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.
