here you are, i hope it helps ;)
(those with * are EXACT)
mass:
*1 kg = 1000 gm
1 slug = 14.59 kg
1 kg = 0.06852 slug
1 kg = 6.022 * 10^26 u
1 u = 1.66057 * 10^(-27) kg
lenght:
*1 in = 2.54 cm
*1 ft = 12 in = 30.48 cm
1 m = 1.0936 yd = 3.281 ft = 39.37 in
* 1 mi = 5280 ft = 1760 yd
1 mi = 1.609 km
1 light-year = 9.461 * 10^15 m
*1 A= 10^(-10) m
time:
*1 h = 60 min = 3600 sec
*1 d = 24 h = 1440 min = 86400 sec
1 y = 365.24 d = 31560000 sec
volume:
1 L = 1000 cm3 = 0.001 m3 = 0.03531 ft3
1 gal(U.S) = 3.786 L
force:
1 lb = 4.4482 N
1 N = 0.2248 lb = 100000 dyne
pressure:
*1 atm = 1.01325 bar = 101325 Pa = 760 torr
angle:
*(pi) rad = 180 [deg]
1 rad = 57.30 [deg]
1 [deg] = 0.01745 rad
power:
1 hp = 550 ft-lb/sec = 745.7 W
1 W = 0.001341 hp = 0.7376 ft-lb/sec
energy:
1 ft-lb = 1.356 J = 3.766 * 10^(-7) kW-h = 0.001286 Btu
*1 cal = 4.1840 J
1 Btu = 778 ft-lb = 252 cal = 1054 J
1 eV = 1.602 * 10^(-19) J
magnetic induction:
*1 T = 10000 G
