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.
Shekel (Biblical Hebrew)
The shekel (Biblical Hebrew) is an ancient unit of weight and currency used in biblical times, primarily for measuring silver and other precious metals.
History/Origin
Originating in ancient Mesopotamia, the shekel was used as a standard weight and currency in the ancient Near East, notably in biblical Israel. Its weight varied over time and region, but it generally represented a specific mass used for trade and taxation.
Current Use
Today, the shekel is the official currency of Israel (Israeli New Shekel), but the biblical shekel as a unit of weight is no longer in use. The term is primarily historical and religious in context.
