The numerical value of Hubble's constant H0 is 22 kilometres per second per million light-years; the closure density then equals 10−29 gram per cubic centimetre, the equivalent of about six hydrogen atoms on average per cubic metre of cosmic space.
Seasonal assessments are possible, however; numbers of commercial crops can take up and transpire the equivalent of 38 centimetres of precipitation during the growing season.
In the centimetre-gram-second system, the electric field is expressed in units of dynes per electrostatic unit (esu), equivalent to statvolts per centimetre.
The atmosphere (atm; approximately 1.034 kilograms per square centimetre [14.7 pounds per square inch], equivalent to the weight of about 760 millimetres [30 inches] of mercury) and the bar (equivalent to one kilogram per square centimetre) are often cited.
Fifteen centimetres downwind from each plant, a piece of filter paper (0.5 × 1.0 cm) loaded with 1 female gland equivalent dose was placed 30 cm above the wind tunnel floor.
Even the most stingy of low-cost carriers, such as easyJet, currently have a limit equivalent to 40,000 cubic centimetres (see table below).
The standard unit of permeability is the darcy, equivalent to the passage of one cubic centimetre of fluid (having a viscosity of one centipoise) per second through a sample one square centimetre in cross-sectional area under a pressure of one atmosphere per centimetre of thickness.
When Kirstenbosch put up for auction a sucker from its prize specimen of Encephalartos woodii, it fetched a price of 89,000 rand (£8,347) equivalent to around 1,700 rand (£159.45) per centimetre of the plant's circumference.
Near the Sun the average density of interstellar gas is 10−21 gm/cm3, which is the equivalent of about one hydrogen atom per cubic centimetre.
Their rate of sediment delivery is equivalent to an average lowering of the lands by 30 centimetres (12 inches) in 9,000 years, a rate that is sufficient to remove all the existing continental relief in 25,000,000 years.
Through a careful medication and dietary history our patient disclosed the consumption of two centimetres of liquorice root a day for the last 2 months, an equivalent of 1.5 g liquorice daily.
