G is available in M15.  Is it not there in Prime?  (I don't have Prime).

First off, the following need to be defined as natural constants.

Note that the values given are EXACT, by definition as of May last year:

From these, many other natural constants can be defined, as well as the SI units.

So in  (real) Mathcad I can do this:

Subsequently I can define:

and so on...

From there I can go:

LucMeekes_2-1583866782116.png

et cetera...

Then after defining:

we can:

I have not found a way to do the first step in Prime, so I haven't bothered to try the rest.
