* The zero of the Fahrenheit scale is 32 below the freezing point of water. 



In many of the derived units for the measurement of physical quantities, the 

 unit of time may be taken as constant, because it is seldom that any other unit 

 than the second is used. This is the case, in particular, for the electric and 

 magnetic units. Tables 33-37 below, giving the factors for the conversion of 

 units depending on different dimensional equations in M and L from one set 

 of fundamental units to another, will be found sufficient for almost all cases. 



TABLE 33. Electric Displacement, etc. 



Dimensions = M^L -T.
