Metric System

The version of the metric system that modern scientist uses is called The International System of Units or SI.

Since "kg" is the standard SI unit of mass, and inches is an English unit of measurement, kilograms cannot me measured in inches.

If you meant ounces instead of inches:

1 kilogram = 35.2739619 ounces, or about 35.274 ounces.

2.4*35.274

84.6576 ounces.

However, if you meant to type 2.4km, then it would be:

1 meter = 39.3700787 inches, or about 39.37 inches.

1 kilometer = 1,000 meters.

2.4km = 2,400 meters.

2400*39.37

94,488 inches.

Because it is the only complete "system" of measurements we have. The "inch" thing is not a "system" at all, but a compilation of customary units and relationships. The metric system is especially important to science, where a complete system of measurements is necessary.

The metric system has a base of ten (for example there are 10 mm in 1 cm, 100 cm in 1 m, 1000 m in 1 km) whereas the English system isn't (12 inches in a foot, 3 feet in a yard and 5280 feet in a mile) so there aren't a bunch of arbitrary conversions to remember in the metric system

The metric system is commonly used in science, medicine, and internationally for measurements such as distance (meters), weight (grams), and volume (liters). The English system is typically used in the United States for everyday measurements such as miles for distance, pounds for weight, and ounces for cooking. Both systems have different units for measuring the same quantities.

Your question is unclear. Please reword your question.

There is no specific unit for "water pressure". The unit for pressure in general is the pascal; 1 pascal = 1 newton / square meter. In practice, the "bar" is often used, but that's not, strictly speaking, an SI unit. 1 bar = 100,000 pascal, and it is approximately equal to 1 atmosphere.

1 kilometre = 1000 metres. You now have all the information required to answer this and similar questions.

In the international system (SI) the length is measured in meters (m)

The following conversion Table holds

1 meter = 39.3700787 inches

1 meter = 3.28083989501312 Feets

1 meter = 1.0936133 yards

1 meter = 0.000621371192237334 Miles

Standard multiples used for meters are

millimeter (mm) = 0.001 m

centimeter (cm) = 0.01 m

decimeter (dm) =0.1 m

kilometer (km) = 1000 m

The hectometer is equal to 100 meters and is rarely used as a unit, though derivatives of it are sometimes used, particularly the hectare, which is a unit of area. The cubic hectometer is sometimes used as a unit of volumetric measurement, particularly when discussing large amounts of standing or flowing water, such as reservoirs or rivers.

0.08 kilo. The prefix "kilo" (symbol k) in the International System of Units (SI) and other systems, which denotes 103, it means one thousand. Therefore, there are 1,000 grams (g) in a kilogram (kg) and 0.001 kilogram equal a gram. Kilograms and grams are units of mass not volume such as liters, gallons, quarts, pints, and cups, and can only be conveted to each other if you have the specific item being measured, as each item has a different density.

Search the Wikipedia for "SI prefixes". Example: mega means a million; kilo means a thousand; so to convert from mega-something to kilo-something, you multiply by 1000 (which is a million divided by thousand). Or: kilo means a thousand, milli means 1/1000, so to convert from kilo to milli, you multiply by a million (since 1000 divided by 1/1000 is a million).

If what you want is to convert metric units to non-metric units, or vice versa (for example, light-years to meters), you might just look up the specific unit, for example in the Wikipedia - usually it lists equivalents in other units. You can also type something similar to the following in Google:

1 light-year in meters

And Google will show you the equivalent.

There are 1760 yards in one mile. Therefore, 9000 yards is equal to 9000 / 1760 = 5.1136 recurring (that is, 5.11363636..) or 5 5/44 (five and five forty-fourths) miles.

The metric unit most often used to describe weight is the Kilogram.

The SI unit for volume is the liter, and for length it is the meter. The unit of mass is the kilogram. In chemistry and physics these units are commonly used as the international standard units of measurements.

The British Empire started using Imperial Units around 1825, which is the closest to the units that we still use today (inch, pound, foot, ton, mile, etc.).

Before 1825 the British Empire was using English Units, which were very similar to the Imperial Unit, with more units of measurment in between. For example, you had the Digit (3/4 inch), the Finger (7/8 inch), the Hand (4 inches), the Nail (3 digits), the Palm (3 inches). And the inch itself was made up of 3 barleycorns. The barleycorn being the smallest of the English Units

Nine meters is 29 feet 6.33 inches.

There are 1000 g in a kilogram, so 1 g is 0.001kg

It is better, the metric system is an improvement over

the English system in three major points:

1. One unit of measurement for each physical

quantity. No matter from which other

quantities of the SI system derived, yields

always the same unit.

2. Scalability by prefixes - combinations of

prefix and unit make for a plethora of

convenient combined units.

3. Decimal system - fractions are expressed in

decimal notation. Not only makes this the

notation unique, exhaustive and intuitively

comparable, but also allows unit conversion

without doing math - simply by shifts of the

decimal point.
