Describe how the liter is related to the meter?
Meters and liters are units of measure used in the metric system. One is a unit of length and the other is a unit of liquid capacity or volume.
What is the difference than a km or cm?
Each references a meter (metric leaner measure of about 39 inches). Centi is Latin for 1/100; so cm (centimeter) is 1/100 of a meter. Kilo is Latin for 1000; hence km (kilometer) is 1000 meters.
How much does 1 cubic meter weight?
Depends. A cubic meter of WHAT? If it's a cubic meter of lead, it would weigh quite a bit. A cubic meter of air, not so much. The standard substance that is used to relate metric measurements to each other is water. The "gram" was defined as the mass (not weight, but similar) of one cubic centimeter of water at normal temperature. There are 1 million cubic centimeters in a cubic meter, so a cubic meter of water would have a mass of 1 million grams, or 1,000 kilograms, or 1 metric ton. To obtain the mass of 1 cubic meter of some other substances, simply multiply the specific gravity of the substance by the mass of a cubic meter of water.
What would be a reasonable metric unit to use to measure the length of a bacterium?
meters There is no special unit for the size of bacteria, so traditional systems of length are used. As most people who care about bacteria enough to measure them are scientists, and most scientists use metric (the better to understand each other), the metric system is used. Now, the basic unit of length in the metric system is a meter, but that is much to big to measure a bacterium with. Conveniently, metric units come with a series of prefixes to express multiples or fraction of a unit (you may know of centimeters, which are hundredths of a meter, and kilometers, which are a thousand meters) In general, bacteria will be measured in micrometers, which is to say millionths of a meter. In general, a bacterium will measure anywhere from one to ten nanometers.
49.5 metric tons equals how many kilograms?
Each metric ton is 1000 kilograms.
If the area of a square is 1 square meter how many centimeters long is each side?
If the area of a square is 1 square meter, then there is one meter on each side. Since there are 100 centimeters in a meter, then there are 100 centimeters on each side.
How do you draw the metric staircase?
The top stair starts at the far left and is Kilo (Kiloliter, Kilometer, Kilogram) next step down is Hecto, next step is Deka, then Base (meter, liter, gram) Next is deci, centi, and then milli. Each time you move down a step you will move the decimal point forward one place. Each time you climb up a step you move the decimal point backwards one step each time. This is how you would draw it. kilo _____ )hecto- )______ )deka- )______ )metric base (meter, liter, gram) )___________ ) deci- )_______ ) centi- )_______ ) milli- )_______
How is the metric system like your money system?
They are both variants of a base 10 (decimal) system. just as a centimeter is 1/100 (0.01) of a meter, the cent (penny) is 1/100 (0.01) of a dollar. 100 cents = 1.00 dollar 100 centimeters = 1 meter 1,000 dollars is sometimes denoted as $1K 1,000 meter sometimes denoted as 1Km.
What is the base unit of length in a metric system?
The base unit of length in the SI (metric) system is the metre. In 1960, the metre was defined as equal to 1,650,763.73 wavelengths of the orange-red emission line in the electromagnetic spectrum of the krypton-86 atom in a vacuum. In 1983, the definition of the metre was changed to be the path travelled by light in vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second. I was taught that radon gas or the wavelength of radon was considered to be one meter one cycle only equals one meter they chose radon because the wavelength does not change with temperature and pressure fluctuations
