Class Mass

java.lang.Object

manifold.science.api.AbstractMeasure<MassUnit,Mass>

manifold.science.measures.Mass

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable<Mass>, Sequential<Mass,Rational,MassUnit>, ComparableUsing<Mass>, Dimension<Mass>

public final class Mass
extends AbstractMeasure<MassUnit,Mass>

Models a measure of mass in units of MassUnit.

Use values of Mass directly in arithmetic expressions with other dimensions such as:

   // commonly used unit abbreviations e.g., m, ft, hr, kg, etc.
   import static manifold.science.util.UnitConstants.*;
   ...
   Mass weight = 80.21 kg;
   Mass infant = 9 lb + 8.71 oz;
   Force f = 2120 kg * 9.807 m/s/s;

Method Detail

getBaseUnit

public MassUnit getBaseUnit()

Description copied from class: AbstractMeasure

The unit on which all instances of this type are based. For instance, a Length dimension might use Meters as the base unit because it is the SI standard.

Specified by:
