There are many Units of Measurement, under different categories of Science, including Weight, Mass, Time, Density, Heat, Pressure, etc. There are also many variations of said measurement under each type of measurement unit. Today, measurements most commonly used are Metric Measurements, such as centimetres, grams and so on, but Imperial Measurements are also common, such as inches, tonnes, feet, and so forth. Below is an inaccurate and incomplete list of a few examples of some measurements for certain categories. Next to them, in brackets, are the shortenings of each unit.

Length can be measured in centimetres and inches. (cm and in)

Mass can be measured in grams and tonnes. (g and t)

Weight can be measured in Newtons. (N)

Density can be measured in Grams per cubic centimetre. (g/cm3)

Heat can be measured in Degrees Celsius, Degrees Fahrenheit or Kelvin. (°C, °F and K)

Time can be measured in seconds. (s)

The Gregorian Calendar can be measured in Days, Weeks, Months and Years (d, [N/A] m, y)

The length units are:

nanometres

micrometres

millimetres

centimetres

decimetres

metres

deca metres

hecta metres
