The SI unit of luminous intensity (luminosity) is thecandela (CD).
illuminance: pH = phot = CD·sr·cm-2 (= 104 lx)
luminance: L = Lambert = CD·cm-2 (= 104 lx)
luminous emission: sb = stilb = CD·cm-2 (= 104 CD·m-2)
quantity of light: lumerg = CD·sr·s (= 1 lm·s)
The correct unit for speed in MKS system is 'm'.
CGS is NOT common nowadays. MKS is common because the SI, the international system of units, is based on it.
cgs (centimetre,gram,seconds) or SI system i.e mks (metre, kilogram,seconds)
SI has a set of base units, which are all from the metric system but are chosen to give consistency: Length in meters, mass in kilograms, time in seconds, temperature in degrees kelvin, electric current in amperes, amount of substance in moles, luminous intensity in candelas. Previously, scientists used to use the CGS system, which stands for centimeter gram second, and engineers used to use MKS which stands for meter kilogram second, largely because engineers were used to larger quantities. Now it is more unified. Scientists used to use as force the dyne, now we use the Newton, and for work the erg, now we use the joule. For speed we use meters/sec instead of centimeters/sec. For pressure the SI unit is the pascal which is 1 Newton /sq meter, whereas scientists used to use dynes/sq cm, and engineers often used kg/sq cm. All these SI units can be called metric, and they are all related to the earlier metric system, but using consistent units makes it easier to compare work done in different countries and disciplines.
Mass can either be measured in grams, kilograms, pounds But the SI unit of mass is kilograms
The MKS (meter-kilogram-second) unit for energy is the joule (J).
In the MKS (meter-kilogram-second) system, the unit of mass is the kilogram (kg).

The 2010 Lincoln MKS has a 4 yr./ 50000 mi. basic warranty.
The 2013 Lincoln MKS has a 4 yr./ 50000 mi. basic warranty.
The 2011 Lincoln MKS has a 4 yr./ 50000 mi. basic warranty.
The 2009 Lincoln MKS has a 4 yr./ 50000 mi. basic warranty.
The 2012 Lincoln MKS has a 4 yr./ 50000 mi. basic warranty.
the mks unit is kg/m cube and the cgs unit is g/cm cube
The correct unit for speed in MKS system is 'm'.
The MKS unit for acceleration is meters per second squared (m/s^2).
when the unit of any physical quantity is measured in terms of meter or kilogram or second or in combination of these then it is said that unit is in MKS system.
