    Uploaded by

    SAUD
    This document lists common physical constants along with their values in SI and cgs units. It includes constants like Avogadro's number, Boltzmann's constant, electron charge, gas constant, and velocity of light. Unit abbreviations for common units like meters, grams, joules, and kelvin are also defined. Finally, SI prefixes from giga to pico and their associated multipliers are shown.
