Metric System

These are the units of length, SO ,we need to find out the relation between both these units.mm and inchese are related to each other as follows :

1 inches =25.4 mm.

which means 1 mm=0.039 inches .

Now,2 mm=2 * 0.039 inches .

the result is 0.078 inches.

350 grade steel typically has a density of around 7.85 grams per cubic centimeter.

You don't. The metric system is the international system of measurement. It was designed with several goals in mind. Neutral and universal Any laboratory can make a model of the base units. Starting with length, the meter was determined by the distance between two lines of latitude. This can be measured at any location on earth with the proper instruments. Once the length is established, a cube can be constructed that is 1/10 km on each edge. The volume of this cube is the liter. Everyone has access to water, so fill this cube with water and you have a kilogram of weight at 3.98 degrees celsius. Oh, yes, you also had to develop a thermometer by dividing the difference between water's freezing and boiling points into 100 equal parts. Decimal multiples The metric system is decimal. The next larger unit is always 10 times as large, the next smaller always 1/10 as large. You don't have to remember 12 inches to a foot, 3 feet to a yard, are there four pints in a quart or only two, etc. To convert, simply move the decimal point. Prefixes All derived units use a common set of prefixes for each multiple. "Kilo" means 1000 whether it is used both for mass (kilogram) or length (kilometre). A few units such as the tonne (megagram) and quintal (100 kilograms) survive from old units but have been rounded to metric. The prefixes which come from the Greek language (kilo, mega, giga) are multipliers and those with Latin origins (centi, milli) are divisors.

1 standard ton is 2240 lb = 1016 kg = 1,016,000 grams
1 mt = 1000000 g

Inch and cm are used for measuring the distances. To convert the centimeters to inch we have to multiply the cm unit to 0.393701. This will convert the distance from cm to inch. The answer to the above question is 4.1338 inches(approximately).

Rugby union max 100 x 70 = 7000 m2. Rugby League 100 x 68 = 6800 m2
IRB regulations state that a playing area shall be no less than 70 metres wide by 100 metres long and an in-goal area on each end of the pitch of not greater than 22 metres in depth

KPH stands for kilometers per hour, which is a unit of measuring speed or velocity in the metric system. It represents the distance traveled in kilometers in one hour.

The abbreviation for decameter is "dam", since the abbreviation of deka is da and the abbreviation of meter is m.

Dee, who I am assuming is either a large llilyputian (From Gulliver's Travels), a small midget, or a baby, is very short. Dee is only 37cm tall, which is equal to 0.37 meters. That equals only 14.5669291 inches.

Wow.

The metric system uses kilograms, seconds and meters. Meters is a measurement typically used only in the metric system.
Some units in the metric system are meters, centimeters, millimeters, and liters.

To convert pounds to kilograms, you can use the conversion factor 1 pound is approximately 0.453592 kilograms. So, 9 pounds is approximately 4.08233 kilograms. Converting 6 inches to kilograms is not a valid conversion as inches are a unit of length, not weight.

The metric system is easy to learn and remember as it is based on a count of 10 100 and 1000's etc. (10 mm's. in a centimetre, 1000 centimetre in a meter etc.) Compared to the metric system I can't think of any good points with the English system of measurement.

There are approximately 0.946 liters in one quart.

Meter (length)

Kilogram (weight)

second (time)

Newton (force)

Pascal (pressure)

Joule (energy)

Watt (power)

Ampere (current)

Kelvin (temperature)

......There are more

In the International System of Units (SI), the metre (American spelling: meter) is the base unit of length. Since volume is based on length × width × height, the basic unit of volume is based on the volume of a cube with sides of 1 m.

1 m × 1 m × 1 m = 1 m³ (cubic metre)

However, in common usage, the cubic metre is too big for most needs. The litre (American spelling: liter) is defined as 1 cubic decimetre. A decimetre (dm) is 0.1 m (or 10 cm). That is, the volume of a cube with sides of 10 cm.

A litre has the symbol: L

1 L = 1 dm × 1 dm × 1 dm

= 10 cm × 10 cm × 10 cm

= 1000 cm³ (cubic centimetre)

This also means that the cubic centimetre is equal to 1 millilitre (mL). There are 1000 litres in a cubic metre, meaning that 1 cubic metre is equal to 1 kilolitre (kL). That is:

1 mL = 1 cm³

1 L = 1 dm³

1 kL = 1 m³

For American readers, a liter is slightly larger than a quart.

The metric system has two commonly used measures of mass. The first is the gram (g), and the other is the SI standardized unit of kilogram (kg). 1000 g equals 1 kilogram, and 1 g is .001 kg. Mass is the amount of matter in a sample, and it should not be confused with weight, which is a force (F). The SI unit for F is derived through mass is the Newton (N).

A metric ruler is a straight tool typically made of plastic, metal, or wood with markings in centimeters and millimeters. It is usually 30 centimeters long (or 12 inches), with smaller divisions for millimeters marked along its length. The markings are used to measure length or distance accurately.

This depends on what country you mean by 'ours'!

In the UK they have been using what is known as Imperial measures for centuries for many things. These measurements have become standardised over the centuries.

They have feet and inches, miles and gallons, ounces and pounds and stones! How strange!

Metric measures have names like litres, metres, centimetres, millimeters, etc.

One measure of length in the UK is a 'foot'! Although originally based on an average length of someone's foot (!), it is equal to approx 0.3048 of a metre. (= metric)

Whereas Imperial measures have become established by custom and usage, metric measures are based on physics (with, perhaps, some relationship to features of the earth).

For example the 'metre' was originally designed to represent 1⁄10,000,000 of the distance from the equator to the north pole through Paris.

However, to be even more precise, it is now defined as the distance travelled by light in absolute vacuum in 1⁄299,792,458ths of a second!

This is tricky to check by yourself, so it best to just accept the current definition!

The metric system has the advantage that calculations are made easier because every metric unit is based on multiples of ten, whereas Imperial measures have different multiples. For example, a foot has twelve inches (not ten toes!), and three feet equals a yard (not a tripod!).

However, the metric system still has it's own limitations. Just try dividing 1 by 3 on a calculator! But what is 1/3rd of a 'foot'? Exactly 4 inches of course!

The international avoirdupois ounce has 28.349 523 125 g.

The troy ounce is 31,103 476 8 g.

But bear in the mind that ounce is an old, non SI unit and must be avoided.

14th February 1966 was the date for the conversion of Australia's currency from Pounds, Shillings and Pence, to Dollars and Cents.

The conversion to Metric for units of measurement was completed for most usages during 1974.

The change to Metric measurement conversion was commenced in 1969, and was completed in 1988. The conversion was done slowly because of the cost to many industries, and the need to "tool up" for it.

For example, cars were built with some metric changes in 1974, such as speedometers in both kilometres and miles.

Odometers in these speedos read in kms, but the speedometers read in both kilometres per hour and miles per hour.

By 1976, all newly-manufactured road-going vehicles were required to have speedometers with all metric readings and markings, and older vehicles were encouraged to have their speedometers changed to metric.

There was a roaring trade in speedometer conversions for a few years.

The fasteners used in manufactured items such as motor cars were changed slowly, with many Australian-built items, using a mixture of metric and imperial fasteners from the late 1970's to the mid-1980's.

The WB model Holdens for example (built 1980-1985), were mostly imperial fasteners from the front door pillars back, but the front section from the firewall forward, used metric fasteners.

This mixture of fasteners leads to problems in re-assembly, if care isn't taken, and the thread type must be checked carefully.
