What do you use to measure speed in the metric system?
You use exactly the same instruments to measure speed in the metric system as you use in any other system. For example, a speedometer, or a distance measuring device and a stopwatch. The difference is that these devices are calibrated in metric units, instead of old-fashioned units.
Converting metric into square feet?
"Metric" is a system of measurement of all sorts of characteristics: length, area, volume, time, speed, force and so on. No metric measurement units are specified in the question and so it cannot be answered.
How do you convert metric system to ounces?
This is an international system for measuring all sorts of things: mass, length, time, electric current, temperature and so on, as well as measurement based on these (speed = length/time, volume = length x length x length etc). In most cases ounces are an inappropriate unit and so the metric system, as a whole, cannot be converted to ounces.
How moch is 42mph in miles?
Miles can't be converted to miles per hour. Miles measure length, while miles per hour measure speed.
How is the metric system used in everyday life?
In real life, the metric system is used universally in scientific work all over the world.It is also used to talk about length, width, height, area, volume, mass, weight, distance,temperature, and speed, by common ordinary people in their everyday real life and workall over the world, except in Liberia, Burma, and the USA.
How do you convert knots to miles?
You can't. Knots is a measure of speed, miles is a measure of length.

How do you measure speed in the metric system?
Kilometers per hour, meters per second, etc.
What do you measure with?
Units of measure are used to measure anything: length or volume, mass or speed, pressure or force etc.
What do you measure units with?
Units of measure are used to measure anything: length or volume, mass or speed, pressure or force etc.
Is length a constant?
No, length is a relative measure. If an object is travelling close to the speed of light it undergoes Lorenz contraction.
How fast is 250 nm?
nm stands for nanometres, it is not a measure of speed, but length

How long is the speed of light?
The speed of light isn't a distance so it has no length it is a measure of speed, which is roughly 186000 miles per second.

How do you measure a CD's speed 24x10x70?
24x is the read 10x is the write and 70 is the length or capacity.
