Usually, we need to check the definition of a unit or study more about the specific unit, its origins, use and others. Instead of having to google using a separate browser, EngiLab Units features a built-in web browser with ready-to-use links to Wikipedia articles for certain units. All one has to do is click the "Show info" button, either for the input or the output unit.

See for example the screenshot below which shows the Wikipedia article for "Standard gravity".

Note: Not all units in EngiLab Units support this feature as not all units have a Wikipedia article associated with them. The "Show info" button is only activated for units that have either their own Wikipedia article, or an article which is relevant to them.

Note: The same applies for the 22 categories. By clicking on "Show info" for a category, you visit the Wikipedia article for this category. All 22 categories of units have a corresponding Wikipedia article associated with them.
