Neutron Mass
The neutron mass (m_n) is the mass of a neutron, a subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom, approximately 1.675 × 10⁻²⁷ kilograms.
History/Origin
The neutron was discovered in 1932 by James Chadwick, leading to the understanding of its mass relative to protons and electrons. The neutron mass has been refined through experimental measurements in nuclear physics.
Current Use
The neutron mass is used in nuclear physics calculations, atomic mass units, and in the 'Weight and Mass' converter for scientific and educational purposes, as part of the 'Common Converters' category.
Microgram
A microgram (µg) is a unit of mass equal to one millionth of a gram (10^-6 grams).
History/Origin
The microgram was introduced as part of the metric system to measure very small quantities, particularly in science and medicine, and has been widely used since the 20th century.
Current Use
Micrograms are commonly used today in fields such as pharmacology, nutrition, and chemistry to measure small amounts of substances accurately.
