Kilogram (kg) — the SI base unit of mass
It is defined by fixing the Planck constant at exactly 6.62607015×10⁻³⁴ J·s; together with the definitions of the meter and second, this sets the kilogram. Used worldwide for measuring mass in science, engineering, commerce, medicine, food, shipping, and everyday life.
- Symbol: kg
- System: SI base unit for mass
- Exact relations: 1 kg = 1000 g = 1,000,000 mg
- Imperial equivalents (derived from 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg exactly): 1 kg ≈ 2.20462 lb ≈ 35.27396 oz
- Typical examples: 1 liter of water ~1 kg; a laptop ~1.5 kg; an adult person ~70 kg.
Denarius (denarius) — a historical Roman unit of mass and silver coin
It was originally a Roman silver coin rather than a modern fixed mass unit; historical denarius weights varied by period, while modern biblical or historical unit converters commonly use about 3.85 grams. Used mainly in numismatics, ancient history, biblical studies, historical trade, and references to Roman coin weights.
- Symbol: denarius
- System: Historical Roman and biblical unit for mass
- Common conversion: 1 denarius ≈ 3.85 g = 3850 mg ≈ 0.00385 kg
- Imperial equivalents (derived from 1 lb = 0.45359237 kg exactly): 1 denarius ≈ 0.135805 oz ≈ 0.00848777 lb
- Typical examples: early Roman silver denarii weighed around 4 g; later coin weights changed over time; biblical and historical converters often use about 3.85 g.
