A TDS Meter indicates the Total dissolved solids Total Dissolved Solids TDS of a solution , i.e. the concentration of dissolved solids in it. Since dissolved ion ionized solids such as salt s and mineral s increase the Conductivity electrolytic conductivity of a solution, a TDS meter measures the conductivity of the solution and estimates the TDS from that. Dissolved organic solids such as sugar and microscopic solid particles such as colloids, do not significantly affect the conductivity of a solution so a TDS meter does not include them in its reading. Units of TDS A TDS meter typically displays the TDS in parts per million ppm . For example, a TDS reading of 1 ppm would indicate there is 1 milligram of dissolved solids in each kilogram of water.

A per unit tax , or specific tax , is a tax that is defined as a fixed amount for each unit of a good or service sold, such as cents per kilogram. It is thus proportional to the particular quantity of a product sold, regardless of its price. Excise taxes, for instance, fall into this tax category. By contrast, an ad valorem tax is a charge based on a fixed percentage of the product value. Per unit taxes have administrative advantages when it is easy to measure quantities of the product or service being sold.

Unreferenced date December 2009 For other meanings of density Density disambiguation Linear density , linear mass density or linear mass is a measure of mass per unit of length , and it is a characteristic of strings or other one dimensional objects. The SI unit of linear density is the kilogram per metre kg m . The linear density, math sometimes denoted by math , of an object is defined as math mu frac partial m partial x math where math m is the mass, and math x is a coordinate along the one dimensional object. For the common case of a homogeneous substance of length math L and total mass math m , this simplifies to math mu frac m L math In drawing or printing, the term linear density also refers to how densely or heavily a line is drawn.

cleanup date April 2012 In thermodynamics , the specific volume of a substance is the ratio of the substance s volume to its mass. It is the reciprocal of density and is an intrinsic property of matter math v frac V m rho 1 math See also Volume thermodynamics Category Thermodynamics It is commonly applied to these cases. Specific volume is a property of materials, defined as the number of cubic meters occupied by one kilogram of a particular substance. The standard unit is the meter cubed per kilogram m 3 kg or m 3 kg 1 . Sometimes specific volume is expressed in terms of the number of cubic centimeters occupied by one gram of a substance. In this case, the unit is the centimeter cubed per gram cm 3 g or cm 3 g 1 . To convert m 3 kg to cm 3 g, multiply by 1000 conversely, multiply by 0.001. Specific volume is inversely proportional to density . If the density of a substance doubles, its specific volume, as expressed in the same base units, is cut in half. If the density drops to 1 10 its former value, the specific volume, as expressed in the same base units, increases by a factor of 10. Imagine a variable volume, airtight chamber containing a certain number of atoms of oxygen gas. Consider the following four examples If the chamber is made smaller without allowing gas in or out, the density increases and the specific volume decreases If the chamber expands without letting gas in or out, the density decreases and the specific volume increases If the size of the chamber remains constant and new atoms of gas are injected, the density increases and the specific volume decreases If the size of the chamber remains constant and some atoms are removed, the density decreases and the specific volume increases ... more details

refimprove date October 2009 The MKS system of units is a physical system of units that expresses any given measurement using fundamental units of the metre , kilogram , and or second MKS . Historically the MKS system of units succeeded the cgs system of units and laid the blueprint for the International System of Units , which now serves as the international standard. Therefore the exact composition of the MKS system is a historical issue. As a matter of historical record the MKS system incorporated fundamental units other than the metre , kilogram , and second in addition to derived units. An incomplete list of the fundamental and derived units appears below. Since the MKS system of units never had a governing body to rule on a standard definition, the list of units depended on different conventions at different times. Cycle. This dimensionless quantity became synonymous with the term cycle per second as an abbreviation. This circumstance confused the exact definition of the term cycle. Therefore the phrase cycle per metre became ill defined. The cycle did not become an SI unit .
