Metric System

1 teaspoon is approximately equal to 5 milliliters in the International System of Units (SI).

In the metric system, "mega" is a prefix that denotes a factor of one million, represented by the symbol "M." For example, 1 megabyte is equal to 1 million bytes, and 1 megawatt is equal to 1 million watts.

Not sure there is a definitive answer, or that there is a 'metric' system, but the S.I. unit of weight is the Kilogram (N.B. not the gram).

You would typically measure the mass of a snowflake in the metric unit of milligrams (mg), as snowflakes are very small and light objects.

The joule (J) is named after James Prescott Joule. One joule is defined as the amount of work done by a force of one newton moving an object through a distance of one metre.

There are approximately 270.51 fluid ounces in 8 liters.

The metric, or SI, system is used all over the world.

The Kelvin is the official unit of temperature in the SI.

Five and three-fourths what? A foot? A yard? A rod? A mile? An Angstom?

400726.65 meters

1 mile = 1609.344 meters

1 meter = 0.00062 mile

There are 1.609344 kilometres in one mile. Therefore, 688 miles is equal to 688 x 1.609344 = 1107.228672 kilometres.

9 meters is 90 decimeters.

3.976 mi

1 mile = 1609.344 meter

1 meter = 0.00062 mi

0.93 mile

1 mile = 1609.344 meters

1 meter = 0.00062 mile

0.0074 mile

1 mile = 1609.344 meters

1 meter = 0.00062 mile

The metric system is based on powers of 10. Its units increase or decrease by factors of 10, making conversions between different units straightforward and consistent. This system makes it easier to work with measurements and perform calculations.

Quantitative measurements are used, because science and medicine rely on exactly that, quantities. The other option would be qualitative measurements (large, small, good, bad, etc), and since that wouldn't allow science or medicine to operate with any precision, quantitative measurements are used.

The metric system is used because the exchange of information across scientists and doctors around the world is important to progress in these fields. Since there are about 20 times as many people in the world who use the metric system compared to English units, scientists and doctors in the US use the more common and easily understood system.

Celsius and Fahrenheit are relative scales which are compared with freezing and boiling points of water. While kelvin is not relative and is an absolute scale. From graphical representation of Charles's when one extrapolate the graph straight, it will touch the zero volume at -273.16 Celsius or OK. This OK is the start or emergence of kelvin scale which is not related to anything, but absolute.

There are 366.6 dm in 3.666 m. Just multiply the number of meters by 100 to convert to decimeters.

The metric system (the SI, to be more precise) will make it easier to trade with other countries, since almost everybody else already uses SI units.

Also, it will make several calculations quite a lot easier. For example: convert 5.72 kilometers to meters. Answer: multiply this by 1000, so the result is 5720. This calculation can be done in your head, by moving the decimal point three digits to the right. Now try converting 5.72 miles into feet in your head!

3.54 metres, as there is 100 centimetres in a metre.

No SI unit for no. of atoms. But there is a SI unit to measure the amount of any substance. It is moles and mole is a fixed quantity. Each mole represents a group of 6.022 x 1023

particles. These particles may be atoms or molecules.

Yes, commonly, the milliliter, or one thousandth of a liter.
