cgs: centimeter per second2
mks: meter per second2
the mks unit is kg/m cube and the cgs unit is g/cm cube
(MKS)or(SI)- joule CGS- erg
In the MKS (Meter-Kilogram-Second) system, the unit of displacement is the meter (m). In the CGS (Centimeter-Gram-Second) system, the unit of displacement is the centimeter (cm). In the SI (International System of Units), which is an extension of the MKS system, the unit of displacement remains the meter (m). Thus, the units of displacement across these systems are meters in MKS and SI, and centimeters in CGS.
MKS unit of power is "Watt 'W' (1W=1J/s)" CGS unit of power is "egr(cgs unit of work)per second"

The units for acceleration in the MKS (meter-kilogram-second) system are meters per second squared (m/s^2). In the CGS (centimeter-gram-second) system, the units for acceleration are centimeters per second squared (cm/s^2).
The cgs unit of acceleration is centimeter per second squared (cm/s^2).
The MKS unit for acceleration is meters per second squared (m/s^2).
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
The MKS (meter-kilogram-second) unit of momentum is kilogram meter per second (kg m/s), while the CGS (centimeter-gram-second) unit of momentum is gram centimeter per second (g cm/s).
meter/second2.
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.
