Metric System

The word "metric" has two syllables: met-rick.

everyone that doesnt live in the United States dont use it

Thermometers typically use metric units such as Celsius or Kelvin to measure temperature. These units are widely used in scientific research and everyday applications due to their consistency and ease of conversion.

If you mean 0.001, the prefix "milli" (abbreviated "m") is used for that.

The teaspoon measurement is commonly used in both the metric and English systems. In the metric system, a teaspoon is equivalent to 5 milliliters, while in the English system it is equal to about 4.9 milliliters.

Approximately 272 gallons of coconut oil make up 1 metric ton.

The derived SI unit that is equal to the non SI unit of volume, the liter, is the cubic meter (m^3). One liter is equivalent to 0.001 cubic meters.

23000 cL is greater than 4 L 5000 mL. To compare, you can convert all values to the same unit. 4 L 5000 mL is equivalent to 9500 mL, which is less than 23000 cL.

You can have a table of conversions, but the one I always remember is that 1 inch= 25.4mm. If you remember that, you can always work out the conversion for other units.

Thus 55 yards = 165 feet = 1980 inches. So multiplying by 25.4, we get 50292 mm. There are 1000 mm in 1 meter so divide 50292 by 1000 and you get 50.292 meters.

You may not want the answer so exactly so you can probably round it to 50.3 meters, but depending on how exact you need to be.

It is worth checking back to make sure you have got the result roughly right- 1 Yard is about the same length as 1 meter, but slightly less, so the result of about 50 meters seems about right.

In the metric system, the unit of force is the newton (N), while in the English system, the unit of force is the pound-force (lbf).

Celsius

(Fahrenheit for Imperial measurements)

The SI unit for any mass is the kilogram. However, the mass of particles such as neutrons are often expressed either in atomic mass units (amu), or in electron-volts (eV) or some multiple such as MeV - but those, of course, are not SI units.

The base unit of mass is the kilogram.

Potential energy is measure in Joules (J).

A Joule is a Newton*meter (N*m)

No, pounds are not used in any modern system.

Almost all scientist use the metric, or SI, system. Those who don't are in an ever decreasing minority.

Not just scientists.

The metric, or more importantly its SI derivative, is now the ONLY officially and internationally-recognised system for science, engineering and commerce. America is now the only major nation not to have adopted it generally, except in science.

The SI unit of color intensity is candela per square meter (cd/m^2).

The SI unit for velocity (average, starting, final,usual, extraordinary, lowest. highest, but NOT angular) is metres per second.

the opposite of custom length (Americas measuring system) All lengths are measured in metres. The metric prefixes simply indicate the multiple or fraction of metres. Two millimetres is really just shorthand for 0.002 metres, much as two sixteenths of an inch is still measuring in inches.

To convert NM3 (normal cubic meters) to metric tons, you need to know the density of the gas. Once you have the density, you can multiply the volume in NM3 by the density to get the mass in metric tons. The formula is: Mass (metric ton) = Volume (NM3) x Density (metric ton/NM3).

There are six basic prefixes used in the metric system, and they all relate to the base unit in powers of ten. The smallest, milli, is .001 unit. Next, centi- is .01 units, and deci- is .1 units. The larger units start with deca-, which is 10 units, followed by hecta-, which is 100, and kilo-, which is 1000 units.

The ampere (A) is the base unit for current in the SI system.

If you mean, "What is 1 pint in SI units?", the answer is 473.176473 milliliters.

To convert miles to kilometers, you can multiply the number of miles by 1.60934. This will give you the equivalent distance in kilometers. For example, if you have 10 miles, you would multiply 10 by 1.60934 to get 16.0934 kilometers.
