Sort of. US measurements are now for the most part defined in terms of SI units. Also, a few SI units such as "seconds" are used directly.
SI is used worldwide. As scientists, many of their ideas are going to be shared with colleagues within the US and overseas. Therefore, it's easier to use SI in order to keep the conversions to a minimum.
So that we all understand what we are doing.
SI measurements are used everywhere.It makes study of measurements easier.
I believe that si math involves calculations with US standard measurements. For example, in America we use feet, yards, miles, pounds, ounces etc.... The alternative is metric... meters, kilograms, liters.
There is no inherent preference in the use of "English" measurements - miles and pounds - to "SI" ("Systeme Internationale") measurements - meters and grams - other than that the use of SI measurements made the calculations easier, back in the days before computers. Now with computers, there is nothing to argue for either way.
SI units such as kilograms, meters, liters etc
they are easy to use
The SI unit for energy (including heat energy) is the joule. It is still quite common, in many cases, to use the old unit calorie instead.
Scientists primarily use the International System of Units (SI) for measurements. The SI system is based on seven base units, including meters for length, kilograms for mass, and seconds for time. It provides a consistent and standardized way for scientists to communicate measurements and experimental results.
Countries that do not officially use the International System of Units (SI) include the United States, Liberia, and Myanmar. These countries predominantly use the US customary system, imperial system, or their own traditional units for measurements.
The meter and gram are measurements in the SI, or the metric systems. These measurements are comparable to a foot and an ounce.
