What powers is the metric system based on powers of?
It works in powers of 10, so figures such as 100 and 1000 are especially important. There are 100 centimetres in a metre and 1000 metres in a kilometre for example.AnswerThe SI system is based on ten, raised to the power of multiples of three. In other words, micro-. milli-, kilo-, mega-, etc. Centi-. etc., are NOT used in the SI system.
What is SI based on?
water. a gram is one milliliter of water. a milliliter is a cubic centimeter. in degrees Celsius 0 is freezing for water and 100 is boiling. a calorie is the energy it takes heat a milliliter/gram/cubic centimeter of water by 1 degree. so on and so on it is all based on water.AnswerThe units gram, litre, Celsius, and centimetre are not SI units. They are cgsA units which predates the SI system. The SI system is based on the mksA system, which has the metre, kilogram, second, ampere, kelvin, candela, and mole as base units.No SI unit is 'based on water'.
SI is based on?
length(meters), mass (grams), and time (seconds)This answer is incorrect. The correct answer is as follows:The SI system comprises seven BASE units and numerous DERIVED units which are all based on the seven base units. The seven base units are:length: metremass: kilogram (not gram!)time: secondelectric current: amperetemperature: kelvinluminous intensity: candelaamount of substance: mole
Measurements in science are communicated by using?
The world system of measurements units is based on the metric system (SI).
Is SI unit based on powers of ten?
No. The SI units used to measure the same thing (mass, length, whatever) are related by powers of ten, but not always by ten... in fact, it's usually a factor of 1000. Only for the values around unity are the prefixes "clustered together".
What is si units in measurement?
Energy is measured in Joules.
What is SI based?

What measurement is the si system based on?
The SI system is based on multiples (and divisions) of ten. There are seven base units, all others are derived from these.
WHAT is the SI system based on?
multiples of ten.
Is the iternational system of measurement based on the power of 10?
Yes, powers of 10 (and especially, powers of 1000) are used prominently in the SI, with prefixes such as kilo, mega, giga, ..., and milli, micro, nano, ...
