    The atomic mass ( ma or m) is the mass of an atom. Although the SI unit of mass is the kilogram (symbol: kg), atomic mass is often expressed in the non-SI unit dalton (symbol: Da) – equivalently, unified atomic mass unit (u). 1 Da is defined as 12 of the mass of a free carbon-12 atom at rest in its ground state.

  4. Conservation of mass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_of_mass

    In this sense, mass changes in any system are explained simply if the mass of the energy added or removed from the system, are taken into account. The formula implies that bound systems have an invariant mass (rest mass for the system) less than the sum of their parts, if the binding energy has been allowed to escape the system after the system ...

  5. Mass flow meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_flow_meter

    A mass flow meter, also known as an inertial flow meter, is a device that measures mass flow rate of a fluid traveling through a tube.

[1] Unemployment levels rarely dipped below 1,000,000 and reached a peak of more than 3,000,000 in 1933, a figure which represented more than 20% of the working population. The unemployment rate was even higher in areas including South Wales and Liverpool. [1]

    Nevertheless, faced with the mass unemployment and poverty of the Great Depression, the Nazis found it necessary to set up charitable institutions to help those they deemed to be racially-pure Germans in order to maintain popular support, while arguing that this represented "racial self-help" and not indiscriminate charity or universal social ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unemployment_in_China

    China's labor market was highly regulated and dominated by state-owned enterprises, with an average unemployment rate of 3.7 per cent between 1988 and 1995, but this rose sharply after numerous lay-offs between 1995 and 2002, reaching an average unemployment rate of 9.5 per cent between 2002 and 2009. These changes had the greatest impact on ...
