Measuring the thickness of a dime in kilometers would be impractical because a kilometer is a unit suited for measuring long distances, not small objects. A dime's thickness is only about 1.35 millimeters, which is much better expressed in millimeters or centimeters for clarity and precision. Using kilometers would result in an awkwardly small decimal number, making it harder to understand and communicate the size effectively. Thus, choosing the appropriate unit for the measurement context is essential.
There is only one metric system. The relevant units, within that system would be millimetres.
A United States dime coin is 1.35 mm thick. See related link.
A millimeter is closest in thickness to the thickness of a credit card or the edge of a dime.
The mass of any coin is typically measured in grams; the capacity or volume would be measured in millilitres.
A dime does not have weight in meters, as weight is typically measured in grams or ounces. However, if you are asking about the thickness of a dime, it is approximately 1.35 millimeters.

what is a thickness of a dime in metric measurements?
There is only one metric system. The relevant units, within that system would be millimetres.
No, a dime is closer to .045. But that will also depend on how old the dime is. An old dime will not have the same thickness as a new dime.
The actual thickness of a dime is between 1.35 and 1.40 mm.
A US dime has a thickness of 0.135cm

A US dime has a thickness of about 0.0531496 inch.
The unit you should use to measure the thin edge of a dime would be millimeters.
A U.S. dime is 17.91 millimeters in diamater, which is 0.00001791 kilometers.
