Temperature 
100 C = 212 F = boiling point water under 1 atmosphere pressure
0 C = 32 F = freezing point water under 1 atmosphere pressure
0 F = -18 C
100 F = 38 C
* To convert F to C :  (F-32)(.56)      *To convert C to F :  (1.8C)+32

Pressure 
1MPa (megapascal) = 1000 kPa (kilopascal) = 1,000,000 Pa = 145.04 psi = 10 bar = 9.87 atm
1 Pa = .001 kPa  = .000001 MPa = .000145 psi = 1E-05 bar = 9.87E-06 atm
1 bar = 14.5 psi = 100,000 Pa = .987 atm
1 atm = 101,325 Pa = 14.7 psi = 1.01 bar
1 psi = 6894.8 Pa = .069 bar = .068 atm

Radiation 
In the International System of units (SI), radiation is measured in three basic ways. Absorbed Doses are measured in rads and grays, Dose Equivalents are measured in rems and sieverts, and Radioactivity (disintegration) is measured in curie and becquerels.
1 Ci (curie) = .001 kCi (kilocurie) = 1e+12 pCi (picocurie) = 3.7e+10 Bq (becquerel)
1 Bq = 2.703e-14 kCi = 27.03 pCi = 2.703e-11 Ci
1Tbq (terabecquerel) = 1,000,000 Mbq (megabeqcuerel) = 1e+12 Bq
1 rd (rad) = 10 mGy (miligray) = .00001 kGy (kilogray) = .01 Gy (gray)
1 Gy = 1000 mGy = .001 kGy = 100 rd
1 rem = 10000 μSv = 10 mSv = .01 Sv
1 Sv = 1000000 μSv = 1000 mSv = 100 rem

Distances
1 mile = 1760 yd = 5280 ft = 1609 m = 1.609 km
1 ft = 12 in = 30.48 cm = .3048 m
1 in = 2.54 cm
1 km = 1000 m = 3281 ft =  1094 yd = .62 miles
1 m = 100 cm = 39.37 in = 3.28 ft
1 cm = .394 in

Weights 
1 ton (short ton) = 2000 lb = 907.19 kg = .907 tonne (long ton) = 240 gallons = 907.19 L water
1 lb = 16 oz = 453.6 g = .454 kg = .122 gallons water = .46 L water
1 oz = 28.35 g
1 g = .035 oz
1 kg = 1000 g = 35.27 oz = 2.21 lb = .27 gallons water = 1.02 L water
1 tonnes (long ton) = 1000 kg = 2204.6 lb = 1.102 tons (short ton) = 265.5 gallons = 1000 L water
