Calculations using physical constants
To recall a constant, press
K
, then select a physical
constant from the list. (Each item is labeled with a 2-digit
number.)
• To scroll up or down the list of constants, press
u
(
l
) or
d
(
r
).
Use
@ u
(

@ d
(
r
) to jump
to the fi rst or last page.
• Enter the fi rst digit of the 2-digit item number to jump
to the page containing the number that begins with
that digit.
• When you enter the second digit, the constant is
displayed automatically according to the display and
decimal placement settings.
• Physical constants can be recalled in NORMAL
(excluding N-base), STAT, CPLX, MATRIX, LIST, and
EQUATION modes.
• The following table lists the physical constants. See
the calculation example sheet for physical constant
symbols and units.
