Mina (Biblical Greek)
The mina is an ancient unit of weight used in biblical Greek contexts, typically equivalent to about 50 shekels or roughly 0.6 kilograms.
History/Origin
The mina was used in the ancient Near East, including Greece and the Levant, dating back to the early Iron Age. It was a standard measure for trade and commerce in biblical times and was later adopted in various forms by different cultures.
Current Use
Today, the mina is primarily used in historical and biblical studies to understand ancient texts and measurements. It is not used as a modern unit of measurement but is included in historical weight and mass converters for educational purposes.
Proton Mass
The proton mass (m_p) is the mass of a proton, a subatomic particle found in the nucleus of an atom, approximately 1.6726219 × 10⁻²⁷ kilograms.
History/Origin
The proton mass was first measured in the early 20th century through experiments involving atomic and nuclear physics, notably by Ernest Rutherford and subsequent researchers refining the value through scattering experiments and mass spectrometry.
Current Use
The proton mass is used as a fundamental constant in physics and chemistry, serving as a standard unit of mass in atomic and nuclear calculations, and is essential in defining atomic mass units and understanding nuclear reactions.
