A one diopter prism will deviate a ray of light 1cm at a distance of one meter.
A meter is defined as the distance travelled by light in free space in 1/299,792,458th of a second.
unit of length. the distance travelled by light in vaccum in 1/299792458second is called 1 meter
A metre is 3 feet 3 inches. The average height of a grown man is around 1.7 meters. A meter is defined as the distance light travels in a vacuum in 1⁄299,792,458 of a second.
The meter was defined by the French Academy of Sciences as the length between two marks on a platinum-iridium bar, which was designed to represent one ten-millionth of the distance from the Equator to the North Pole through Paris.In 1983, the meter was redefined as the distance traveled by light in free space in 1⁄299,792,458 of a second.
From Wikipedia: "Since 1983, [the metre] is defined as the distance travelled by light in vacuum in 1⁄299,792,458 of a second." This is the currently used definition.
One meter is the distance travelled by light in vacuum in 1/299 792 458 second.
A meter is defined as the distance travelled by light in free space in 1/299,792,458th of a second.
One meter is the distance that light travels in a vacuum in 1⁄299,792,458 of a second.
A meter is defined to be the distance travelled by light in 1/299,792,458 of a second.
Square meter, cubic meter, diopter (= 1/meter). Then, of course, there are derived units that include the meter together with other units - this can be said of most SI units - such as meter/second (for speed), meter/second2 (for acceleration), newton for force (mass x acceleration), work or energy (force x distance), etc.
The current definition of the meter is in terms of the speed of light: "... the distance travelled by light in free space in 1⁄299,792,458 of a second".

A metre is defined as the distance light will travel in 1/299 792 458 seconds in a vacuum.
500 light seconds on my meter.
A meter does not have weight - it is a unit of distance.
Meter : Distance = Newton : Force
The word "metre" or "meter" is defined by the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) as the distance travelled by light in free space in 1⁄299,792,458 of a second. It is a measure of length or distance. "Metres" is the plural of meter.
