If it is a new meter stick you can place it at the end of the stick, otherwise if it is old or shows some wear you should measure from the 1 centimeter mark and then subtract one centimeter from the answer.

What is a system of measurement based on ten?
Matter is defined as that which has mass and occupies space. There are procedures to measure both. Even if you can't measure the mass of an object directly (such as a gas), you can still determine it's mass by measuring the space it occupies. Pressure is one way to measure the mass of gas by the amount of space it occupies.
Which measure in the metric system is defined by using an object for a referent?
Mass
Measurement of the extent of an object along its greatest dimension?
Length
Ph scale in a sentence?
Here is a sentence: The pH scale is the measurement of how basic an object is or how acidic an object is.
What is it called when you compare an aspect of an object with a standard unit?
Measurements
What is height measurement?
height measurement is the accurate and dependable measurement for a man, object or anything.
Is it more accurate to measure an object to the nearest tenth 0.1 of a centimeter or to the nearest centimeter Which measurement is more accuret?
The smaller the measurement, the more accurate.
What is basic metric unit of measurement for mass of small object?
Generally speaking milligrams.
Using a metric ruler student x measured the length of an object to the nearest tenth while student y measure the length to the nearest centimeter which measurement is more accurate?
There are 100 centimeters in a meter. The second student (y) would be more accurate.
Measurement in a sentence?
A collection of data by the accurate observation of an object or process using a standard unit. Good enough?
What unit of metric measurement do you use to find how much matter is in an object?
Grams. Matter is measured by mass and mass's main unit is grams.
What is a measurement of weight in the standard measurement system?
the metric system is based on 1 cc of water weighing 1 gram Correction cc is not an acceptable metric symbol; a cubic centimetre is cm3 Nothing can "weigh" 1 gram - it's not a unit of weight though an object may have a mass of 1 g. The question seems to ask for any unit of weight measurement in "the standard measurement system" without defining what is meant. A metric weight unit is the newton, assuming "the standard measurement system" is SI. In the "standard" US measurement system a weight unit is a pound.

What is an indirect measure and why are such measures common in software metric works?
Indirect measurement is a measurement that is not obtained from a measurement tool; it is a technique that obtains a measurement when direct measurement is not possible. In software metrics work, indirect measures associate a measure to a feature of the object being measured. An example is basing quality on counting rejects. Indirect measures include functionality, quality, complexity, efficiency, reliability, and maintainability.
What is the measurement of the mass of an object per volume of that object?
density.
What is A measurement of how hard it is to slow down and stop an object?
force is the measurement
What metric unit of measurement is used when using the tool lenght times width times height?
When multiplying length by width by height, the volume of the object is calculated. Volume is measured in cubic metres, or m3.
