What else can I help you with?
Is precision customary or metric?
The concept of precision is applicable to ANY system of units.
What is the basic unit of weight in the metric system equal to 39.37?
A basic unit of weight in the metric system is a Newton and that is not equivalent to 39.37 of any standard units in any standard system.
What is the difference between decimal and metric?
Decimal refers to the numbering system based on powers of 10, whereas metric is a system of measurement based on meters, grams, and liters as the fundamental units. Decimal can be applied to any numerical system, while metric specifically refers to units of measurement.
Where in any countries don't use the system of units?
Liberia, Myanmar/Burma, and the U.S.A., are the only non-metric countries, and even these are increasingly turning to the metric system.
What do you use to measure speed in the metric system?
You use exactly the same instruments to measure speed in the metric system as you use in any other system. For example, a speedometer, or a distance measuring device and a stopwatch. The difference is that these devices are calibrated in metric units, instead of old-fashioned units.
What metric units are represented by points on the plotted line?
Any metric or non-metric units can be represented by points on the plotted line.
4800.000 in metric units?
4800.000 is a number: a pure number does not have any metric (nor Imperial) units.
What is the relationship between English measurement and Metric Measurement?
For just about any type of unit, different units are used between the English system and the SI (metric) system. In both systems, there are units for length, area, volume, mass, force, temperature, etc.
What is metric pressure measurement?
It's (any force in metric units of force)/(any area in metric units of area). The most common one you'll encounter is given in units of Pascals. 1 Pascal = 1 newton/square meter
Does the English system have a simple relationship between units of volume and cubed linear units?
The English system does not have simple relationships of any kind, that is why scientists, and nearly the entire world other than the US, use the metric system.
Why is metric system accurate?
The metric system is accurate because it is based on standard units that are defined by physical properties of the natural world, such as the speed of light or the mass of a certain volume of water. This makes it precise and consistent for scientific measurements and international communication.
What is the antonym to metric ton?
The English system (the historical units of measurement) may be considered the "opposite" of metric (SI), but in fact they are simply different units.
