How do you convert density of water in CGS unit to SI unit?
(CGS units) 1.0000 g/cm3 = 1000.0 kg/m3 (SI units) at 4oC temperature
What are the some advantages of the mks and cgs over the fps system?
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.
What is SI and CGS unit of volume?
SI . . . . . meter3 CGS . . . . centimeter3
What is the difference between mks system and si system?
mks unit for before 10 years old ,now all engineering using only SI unit only
What are the two most common systems of units?
The two most common systems of units are cgs and SI systems
Why are CGS and MKS system most common in daily use?
CGS is NOT common nowadays. MKS is common because the SI, the international system of units, is based on it.
Unit of work is?
(MKS)or(SI)- joule CGS- erg
Why cgs and mks is widely used?
CGS is NOT widely used. It was in the past. The only system of measurement that is widely used today is the SI, which is a variety of MKS.
What are the unit of force in CGS and MKS systems?
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
What is the Relation between si unit and amp cgs unit?
The relevant SI bases are MKS.Length: cgs system uses centimetre, MKS uses metre = 100 centimetres. Mass: cgs system uses grams, MKS uses kilogram = 1000 grams. Time: they both use seconds.
What is the ratio of cgs unit to si unit of displacement?
12:3
How do you convert density of water in CGS unit to SI unit?
(CGS units) 1.0000 g/cm3 = 1000.0 kg/m3 (SI units) at 4oC temperature
Is measuring mass?
grams in the CGS measurement system, Kilograms in the Si and MKS system, or pounds in the FPS measurement system.
Why is it convienient to express the density or the specific gravity in cgs units?
Actually it isn't. cgs units are sort of obsolete; nowadays, the scientific community uses SI units.

Where does the international system of units is used by scientists?
Scientists everywhere use SI units... for the most part. There are a few recidivists who have a preference for other units under certain circumstances, such as for example preferring calories to joules for thermodynamics. It's also fairly common for people to use the so-called "cgs" units instead of the modern SI "mks" units (centimeter/gram/second as opposed to meter/kilogram/second).
What is the relationship between SI and CGS units of force?
SI is the Systeme Internalionale of measurement in which the Metre, kilogram and Second are some primary units. An older system based on metric units used centimetre, gram, and second as the primary units. Obviously these may be converted into SI units, but the CGS system is no longer used. [Some of the definitions of the fundamental units differ between these systems.]
