Any and all of them. It's a property of anything measurable in Joules. >and what about torque, meaured in Newton-meters, If you think torque is not measurable in Joules, or if you don't want to measure it in Joules, you could use for example {le ka klanrniutoni pi'u mitre} or even better, {le ka klanrniutonimitre}, which works for anything measurable in newton-meters. >or angular acceleration, which is k m^2 s^-2? That doesn't look like angular acceleration. Don't you mean (rad) s^-2? We have {radno} and {snidu}, but I haven't yet found a way to combine them that I like. co'o mi'e xorxes ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
