Conversion Formula
mg/min = t/s × 60000000000
About Metric tons per second
The metric tonne per second (t/s) equals 1 000 kg/s, the largest commonly cited mass-flow unit for catastrophic events and mega-scale engineering. The Chicxulub impactor released energy equivalent to removing ≈7×10¹¹ t of TNT over milliseconds; large submarine volcanic eruptions expel lava at 10³-10⁴ t/s. Industrial context: the Three Gorges Dam passes ≈45 000 m³/s of water = ≈45 000 t/s at peak flood. 1 t/s = 1 000 kg/s ≈ 1.102 short ton/s.
About Milligrams per minute
The milligram per minute (mg/min) equals 10⁻⁶/60 ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁸ kg/s, the preferred unit for laboratory peristaltic pump output and aerosol generator calibration. Metered-dose inhalers deliver 100-500 µg of active compound per actuation; at 1 actuation per minute that is 0.1-0.5 mg/min. 1 mg/min = 1/60 mg/s ≈ 1.667×10⁻⁸ kg/s.
