Metric System

Momentum is a vector quantity, calculated as the product of an object's mass and velocity. Its SI unit is kilogram meters per second (kg m/s), which represents the combination of mass (kg) and velocity (m/s) in defining momentum. Momentum does not have a separate designated unit name because it is derived from fundamental SI units.

Countries that do not officially use the International System of Units (SI) include the United States, Liberia, and Myanmar. These countries predominantly use the US customary system, imperial system, or their own traditional units for measurements.

Nothing.

It is an abbreviation for gallon, but the gallon is NOT part of the metric system.

In the metric system, a capital M represents the prefix "Mega-" which denotes multiplication by 1,000,000. This is equivalent to 10^6 (1 million). For example, 1 Megameter is equal to 1,000,000 meters.

If you mean how wide is the bed, most of them are between 60 and 70 inches wide, with 48 inches (or slightly more) between the wheel wells to allow them to carry sheets of plywood or drywall commonly produced in that size lying flat in the bed.

The overall width can vary considerably, and you'd need to specify a particular make, model, and year to get an answer.

The metric system, or SI, offers advantages such as simplicity due to its decimal nature, uniformity in unit conversion, and widespread global acceptance. It also provides a standardized system that facilitates communication and understanding across different cultures and scientific disciplines.

I know the exact worksheet you're getting this from. It's not that difficult, why don't you just do your homework? I mean, you actually bothered and took the time to write this, so why not just unscramble the letters? Icermteed isn't a metric unit, so nobody has any idea what you're talking about, and that's why nobody's answered. You should've said, "What is icermteed unscrambled". I guess you phrased the question that way because you didn't want to make a fool out of yourself for being unable to unscramble a simple word. Didn't you realize that people have no idea what you mean? Sorry for going off the hook like that, but seriously? Well, it's decimeter, but you probably asked this long ago. Either way, just do your homework, and if you're going to ask a question, make sure people know what you're talking about.

deca- (da) prefix means 10

hecto- (h) prefix means 100

10 x 10 = 100

⇒ 10 dag = 1 hg

The SI unit for mass is kilogram. Mass is not a unit.

There are many types of measurements throughout the world, and such as, many abbreviations. Some commonly used units of measurement in the United States are inch (in), centimeter (cm), mile (m), pound (lb), ounce (oz) and square (sq).

The SI unit for force is the newton, symbolized by "N". It is defined as the force required to accelerate a one-kilogram mass by one meter per second squared.

By unit of length and distance and conversion ,we can say that base unit of length for the si system

is m.

Yes. Most of the rest of the world except for the United States and one other country uses the metric system, measuring with meters, kilometers, e.t.c. We use feet, inches, miles, e.t.c.

this can cause various complications when measuring. Even though we have different system of measuring things, the metric system is commonly used in the USA regardless. In physics, most students are taught calculations with metric system measurements.

United States. There are some references to Burma (now called Myanmar) and Liberia that I found, as well, but unspecific. In some industries, non metric quantities are still commonplace (and I believe legal), on a worldwide scale, such as 'barrels of oil', 'troy ounces' for gold, and carats for diamonds. In running, the official distance of a marathon is 26 miles, 385 yards. Even in the United States, there is some commonplace usage of metric units, like 2-liter bottles of soda, milligrams and cc (cubic centimeters) for drugs and medicine, and in running, 5k and 10k races are popular (5000 and 10000 meters respectively).

There are 2000 decimeters in 200 meters. This is because there are 10 decimeters in 1 meter.

Presumably the question is about tons, and not TONES which are about the quality of sound. However, the question, as stated, cannot be answered sensibly. A cubic metre is a measure of volume, with dimensions [L3]. A ton is a measure of mass, with dimensions [M]. The two measure different things and elementary dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information.

As a simple mental exercise consider a cubic metre of air and of water. They will have very different masses.

The metric is designed to make mathematical calculations easier. It is based on powers of ten (for example, a hundred centimeters in a meter) which works out much more conveniently than the English system, in which you get things such as 16 ounces in pound, 4 quarts in a gallon, and so forth.

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

The metric unit for a gallon of milk is liters.

You get the cat to sleep in a box and put the box on your baby scale or kitchen scale with the cat in it, then evict the cat and weigh the box without the cat and subtract the two weights. If your scale read in pounds convert the pounds to kilograms by multiplying by 0.45359

Yes, most countries around the world use the metric system as their standard system of measurement. The metric system is a decimal-based system that is widely adopted in many countries for its ease of use and consistency.

Around 5 kg, (unless, of course, it is not a cat but an ounce!)

Time is measured by milliseconds, tenths of a second, seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, decades and centuries.

ADDED: IN other words, all the familiar units; but for many scientific purposes working in small physical scales, the ISO unit of time is the second (abbr. "s").

Yes decimal means base 10 and all metric measurements are base 10 as well.

The fact that all units for measuring the same attribute are multiples or factors of 10 (or 1000, which is 10*10*10). And since we count in tens, all that is required is to move the decimal place left or right.

For example,

1 kilometre = 1000 metres = 1,000,000 millimetres = 1,000,000,000 micrometres.

Easy!

Now try and remember these conversion factors:

1 mile = 8 furlongs = 1760 yards = 5280 feet = 63360 inches.

Not only that, but with the metric system, similar names (and relations) apply to volumes, mass etc.

With the Imperial system, its a whole new set of factors/multiples for mass, and yet another set of factors/multiples for volume.

Without agreeing or disagreeing with that opinion, we simply observe that

that's almost the case now, except for a few primitive hold-outs like the USA

and some tribes deep in the Amazon.
