About Grains per second

The grain per second (gr/s) equals 64.79891 mg/s or 6.479891×10⁻⁵ kg/s. The grain (= 1/7000 lb exactly) is the smallest avoirdupois mass unit, still used in ballistics for bullet and propellant-charge weights. A .308 Winchester rifle bullet of 168 gr fired in 1 s represents 168 gr/s; powder charge is typically 40-46 gr. 1 gr/s = 6.479891×10⁻⁵ kg/s = 64.79891 mg/s.

About Milligrams per hour

The milligram per hour (mg/h) equals 10⁻⁶/3600 ≈ 2.778×10⁻¹⁰ kg/s, adopted in transdermal drug-patch pharmacokinetics to express dermal absorption rate. A nicotine patch typically releases 14-21 mg over 24 h, corresponding to ≈0.58-0.88 mg/h. Environmental emission tests for laboratory fume hoods also express contaminant escape in mg/h. 1 mg/h = 1/3600 mg/s.
