Metric System

The imperial system usually uses inches, feet, and yards for measurements, while the metric system uses millimeters, centimeters, and meters. When interpreting drawings, you need to be familiar with both systems to accurately understand dimensions and proportions. It's important to pay attention to the units specified on the drawing to avoid confusion or errors in measurements.

value of what?

distance = metre, since kilometre is literally 1000 metres.

weight = tonne (metric ton)

The largest value of the metric system is that it is uniform and works.

The metric system, or more correctly the SI system, can measure pretty much anything. It uses seven base units; length-metre, mass-kilogram, time-second, temperature-kelvin, electric current-ampere, luminous intensity-candela, amount of substance-mole. From these seven all the other units are derived. Speed is metre per second, acceleration metre per second per second, force(in newtons) kilogram times metres divided by seconds squared. Energy is newtons times metres.

The size of the unit is only limited by the size of the thing measured. Temperature has a lower limit of 0 kelvin, absolute zero, no temperature below this is theoretically possible, and speed has an upper limit of 300 000 000 metre/second, the speed of light.

The SI system uses prefixes to indicate the fraction or multiple of the unit. milli- indicates one thousandth of the unit, so one millimetre is one thousandth of a metre (0.001m)

The prefix for the highest multiple is Yotta; 1Ym is 1 yottametre or one septillion metres, which is a 1 with 24 zeros after it. The number of millions of yottametres you can have is only limited by the size of the universe.

The base unit of length is the metre. You would use metres to measure a park.

A Rugby pitch is roughly 100 metres long by 70 metres wide.

The SI unit for power, thermal or mechanical, is the watt, W.

1 W = 1 J/s (joule/second).

The prefix "deca" means ten.

Bushels are a unit of measurement in the English system, not the metric system.

That depends on the size of the apple. 5 grams is quite a small difference. The best thing to do is get an apple and weigh it.

375 yards is equivalent to approximately 342.9 meters.

1 yard = 36 inches so 0.75 yards = 36*.75 = 27 inches.

The SI (metric) unit of work is the joule. The roule is also the base unit a energy,v work is just a variant of energy.

One joule is the energy used (or work done) moving a force of one newton a distance of one metre. Or The energy used in passing a current of one ampere through a resistance of one ohm for one second.

It is named after the English physicist James Prescott Joule.

Because some countries still use the outdated and clumsy Imperial system.

International trade requires traders to understand each others' system and, unless the goods are labelled appropriately, consumers need to as well.

1 m³ = 1000 l

In Gallons, that depends where you are:

* In UK: 4.55 litres ≈ 1 gallon → 1 m³ = 1000 litres ≈ 1000 / 4.55 gallons ≈ 220 gallons

* In US: 3.79 liters ≈ 1 gallon → 1 m³ = 1000 liters ≈ 1000 / 3.79 gallons ≈ 264 gallons

A yardstick or a yard (3 feet x 12 inches) has 36 inches in it.

2300 mm = 2300/25.4 = 90.55 inches, approx.

the base unit would be meters or meters squared

<P>

<P>Square meter. Actually there is no unit for area, only one for length...the meter. Area and volume (and a host of others) are derivative units of measure. The primary units are "MKS" meter-kilogram-seconds.</P>

Yes,because it makes thinks easier to do and remember.

A farad is the unit for measuring capacitance, named after Michael Faraday. It isn't a unit of mass. A tonne is 1 000kg, and isn't a measure of any aspect of electricity; so the two are not connected.

10 Feet = 304.8 Centimeters (1 foot = 30.48cm)

The base units for the SI system are: length-meter, mass-kilogram, time-second, temperature interval-deg kelvin(or celsius), electric current-ampere, amount of substance-mole, luminous intensity-candela.

Some derived units are: area-hectare(10,000 sq m), volume-liter, weight-newton, energy-joule, power-watt, pressure-pascal or bar, frequency-hertz, angle-radian, potential difference-volt, resistance-ohm, capacitance-farad, inductance-henry

1000 g = 1 kg

→ 305 g = 305 ÷ 1000 kg = 0.305 kg

100

This really depends on the density of the juice. Density is measured in kg/l, which can also be written as g/ml.

If we assume a density for orange juice of 1.25kg/l, then one litre weighs 1.25kg, or 1250g.
