When symbols arenot separated by a mathematical operator,multiplication is assumed.

The multiplicative factor for converting aunit into International System of Units (SI)units. The factor is expressed in the form"number > x", where "number" is a numericalvalue and "x" is the appropriate SI units.The basic SI units are Enumerated: m (meter),N (newton), kg (kilogram), Pa (pascal), s(second), Hz (hertz), A (ampere), V (volt),K (kelvin), W (watt), rad (radian), J (joule),sr (steradian), C (coulomb), T (tesla), ohm(ohm), mho (mho or seimens), H (henry), andF (farad). Two useful units which are notSI units are: degree (angle), and unitless(no units). An example is: "1.0E-5>T" whichconverts the units, presumable nT, to tesla.Another example is: "1.0e+3>m/s" which convertsa velocity expressed in kilometers per secondto meters per second.

Two useful units which are notSI units are: degree (angle), and unitless(no units).

A description of the standardized measurementincrements in which a value is specified.The description is represented as a mathematicalphrase. Units should be represented by widelyaccepted representation. For example, unitsshould conform to the International Systemof Units (SI) which is maintained by BIPM(Bureau International des Poids et Mesures(see <http://www.bipm.fr/> ) when appropriateor use tokens like "Re" to represent unitsof the Radius of the Earth. Within a phrasethe circumflex (^) is used to indicate a power,a star (*) is used to indicate multiplicationand a slash (/) division. When symbols arenot separated by a mathematical operator,multiplication is assumed. Symbols for baseunits can be found at: <http://www.bipm.fr/en/si/si_brochure/chapter2/2-1/#symbols>and those for common derived units can befound at: <http://www.bipm.fr/en/si/derived_units/2-2-2.html>

The multiplicative factor for converting aunit into International System of Units (SI)units. The factor is expressed in the form"number > x", where "number" is a numericalvalue and "x" is the appropriate SI units.The basic SI units are Enumerated: m (meter),N (newton), kg (kilogram), Pa (pascal), s(second), Hz (hertz), A (ampere), V (volt),K (kelvin), W (watt), rad (radian), J (joule),sr (steradian), C (coulomb), T (tesla), ohm(ohm), mho (mho or seimens), H (henry), andF (farad). Two useful units which are notSI units are: degree (angle), and unitless(no units). An example is: "1.0E-5>T" whichconverts the units, presumable nT, to tesla.Another example is: "1.0e+3>m/s" which convertsa velocity expressed in kilometers per secondto meters per second.
