Pages that use units next to equation variable:

Biot–Savart law

Dipole#Field of a static magnetic dipole

Magnetic field

Lorentz Force

Vacuum permeability

Ram pressure, Pressure

Power (physics)

Magnetic moment#Units

Ampere

Rotational frequency

Definition of the resonant frequency that links to Rotational frequency

Resistivity

Pages that do not use units next to equation variable:

Specific impulse

Magnetic dipole

Pages that use units only next to a number, but multiple unit choices are available and I stated the SI unit choice.

Electron mass

Proton mass



COmments

I cited the following example from Wikipedia MOS, Units of measurement

  • "Units unfamiliar to general readers should be presented as a name–symbol pair on first use, linking the unit name (Energies were originally 2.3 megaelectronvolts (MeV), but were eventually 6 MeV)."

At some point, having the text mention the name(s) used in the article, section, equation (group) unit name; for example in the magnetic sail context: Drag is a force Newtons (N). Plasma mass density ρ (kg/m3) A number of units in magnetic sail appear to not be defined in SI units. or have several options, and the following are widely used in magnetic sail cited references Proton mass mp Kilograms(kg) ion mass mi Kilograms(kg) for an ion with Atomic number Zi ion number density ni (ions/m3) Spitzer resistivity ηp Weber metre (W m)
