About these units
Earth's Mass (M⊕)
Earth's mass is approximately 5.972 × 10²⁴ kilograms, a fundamental parameter in planetary science and orbital mechanics. It governs Earth's gravitational interaction with the Moon, Sun, and artificial satellites and shapes geological processes such as plate tectonics and atmospheric retention. Planetary scientists use Earth masses to compare exoplanets, enabling quick insights into habitability, composition, and gravitational characteristics.
Quintal (Metric) (cwt (m))
The metric quintal, equal to 100 kilograms, is commonly used in agriculture for measuring harvest yields, livestock feed, and bulk commodities such as grains, sugar, and potatoes. Its simplicity makes it popular in countries with strong agricultural sectors. Farmers, traders, and cooperatives find the quintal more intuitive for medium-sized loads than kilograms or metric tons. Though not an SI unit, it remains deeply embedded in agricultural commerce throughout Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
