Kibbla
Kibble Balance / The Kilogram from Planck's Constant Physics
Kibbla is a Pixelated Physics law character from The SI Guard. The Kibble balance weighs a kilogram with electricity: a current-carrying coil in a magnet gap balances the weight (mg), then moving the coil at speed v gives a voltage U, so mgv = UI. Since 20 May 2019 the kilogram is defined by fixing Planck's constant h, and the balance turns h into mass; Le Grand K is retired. This is a pixel-art kiss-cut sticker in 2", 3", 4" and 6" sizes.
