mks unit for before 10 years old ,now all engineering using only SI unit only
The MKS-ISO metric system and the CGS-ISO metric system. The American, Imperial, or customary units of measurement are not a system at all, they are an accumulation of antique units.
There are seven base units from which all other units are derived. length; metre temperature; kelvin time; second mass; kilogram electrical current; ampere amount of substance; mole luminous intensity; candela
All measurements consist of NUMBERS and UNITS OF MEASUREMENT. Hope this helps. neeed accuracy and prescision and some thing very special......? down under....
1. The MKS system - and more specifically the SI is an international standard. It helps when everybody uses the same units. 2. SI uses prefixes for larger and smaller units, based on powers of 10. This makes conversion very simple. For example, to convert kilometers to meters, just multiply by 1000. With just a little practice, this can be done in your head, without pencil and paper.
In MKS measurement system, kilograms are used to measure mass
kg m s-1 in MKS gcms-1 in CGS
the mks unit is kg/m cube and the cgs unit is g/cm cube
Metre, Kilogram, Second (MKS).

They are: m: meter k: kilogram s: second
CGS is NOT common nowadays. MKS is common because the SI, the international system of units, is based on it.
The MKS-ISO metric system and the CGS-ISO metric system. The American, Imperial, or customary units of measurement are not a system at all, they are an accumulation of antique units.
two units of measurements are MKS and CGS systems
In MKS: "meter per second per second" = M/S2. In CGS: "centimeter per second per second" = CM/S2.
The centimetre-gram-second system (CGS) is a system of physical units. It is always the same for mechanical units, but there are several variants of electric additions. It was replaced by the MKS, or metre-kilogram-second system, which in turn was replaced by the International System of Units (SI), which has the three base units of MKS plus the ampere, mole, candela and kelvin. from Arun
Stress has the same dimensions as pressure: force per unit area. In the SI, therefore (or in other MKS systems), the units would be newtons / meter2.
