System Dimensionality Conversions

From Dimensional_analysis

There are many possible choices of base physical dimensions. The SI standard selects the following dimensions and corresponding dimension symbols:
time (T), length (L), mass (M), electric current (I), absolute temperature (Θ), amount of substance (N) and luminous intensity (J).
Dim SI UCS2)
L 2.54cm 1in
M 2.2046kg 1lb

Temperature Conversions

$T_F = \frac{9}{5}T_C + 32$

$T_C = \frac{5}{9}(T_F-32)$

$0^{\circ}C = 273.15K$

$0^{\circ}F = 456.67^{\circ}R$3)

$T_R = \frac{5}{9}T_K$
