The metric system is based on multiples of ten.
They both eat wheat I am not sure what the last answer was meaning - but they are measurements -- one for mass (sometimes called weight) and that would be grams whereas the meter is a measure of length - sometimes spelt metre OR a meter could be simply a device to measure thinks like electric current - or voltage like a volt meter
Phiten is pronounced as "FAHY-ten."
A spider with ten legs has eight legs.
Yes, it is possible to purchase a ten pack of the product.
Humans typically have ten fingers, five on each hand.
SI uses powers of 10.
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".
Several reasons. 1. All units for measuring the same attribute are related by powers of ten and the same prefices are used whether measuring length, mass, energy etc. 2. Many derived units are scaled so that their values are 1 together: for example 1 Newton (force) = 1 kilogram*metre/second2 3. All advanced countries and most of the rest of the world use it.
The SI system is based on multiples (and divisions) of ten. There are seven base units, all others are derived from these.
The metric system is based on the number 10. This means that all units in the metric system are related to each other by powers of 10, making it easy to convert between different units.
They are related to larger and smaller units by powers of ten near the basic unit and by powers of 1000 further away.
The metric system is based upon powers of ten. Metric units are designed to increase or decrease by a factor of ten or by many factors of ten. For example the micrometer is one millionth of a meter, in other words a micrometer is 10-6 meters, which is a difference of six powers of ten.
The Big Ten
Powers of Ten was created in 1968.
The units of the metric system are all designed to convert by powers of ten, so for example, ten millimeters is a decimeter, ten decimeters is a centimeter, ten centimeters is a meter, etc. When you have a large number of powers of ten, you can conveniently describe it by means of scientific notation, using exponents. So, a trillion meters is 1012 meters.
The metric system is much more logical than the previous avoirdupois system. Because all units come in the form of powers of ten (either ten times larger or ten times smaller than other units) the calculations are greatly simplified.
The duration of Powers of Ten is 540.0 seconds.
