it could be mm (millimetres), cm (centimetres), m (metres), km (kilometres), miles, ft(feet), yd (yards), ... there are lots you could use, you should use which ever makes the most sense (e.g. you wouldn't use mm to measure the dimensions of a building, you would use metres)
Science uses two systems of measurement, depending on the subject area.
The MKS system uses the meter to measure distance.
The CGS system uses the centimeter (1/100 of a meter) to measure distance.
In terms of SI Units (Systeme International), which dictate the metric units, scientific calculations involving distance use METRES.
So for example, solving an equation like Speed = Distance/Time, you would use the distance in metres.
Derivatives of this are...
Picometres (10-12 times smaller than a metre, i.e. 0.000000000001m = 1pm)
Nanometres (10-9 times smaller than a metre, i.e. 0.000000001m = 1nm)
Micrometres (10-6 times smaller than a metre, i.e. 0.000001m = um*)
Millimetres (10-3 times smaller than a metre, i.e. 0.001m = 1mm)
Centimetres (10-2 times smaller than a metre, i.e. 0.01m = 1cm)
Metres (1m)
Kilometres (103 times larger than a metre, i.e. 1000m = 1km)
Large distances are usually measured in kilometres - such as distances between towns and cities - whereas the very smallest derivatives are used for measuring diameters of atoms (etc.)
Metric Units are used all over Europe and the majority of the world for clarity in research, whereas certain countries such as the US still use imperial measurements (feet/inches) and to some extent the United Kingdom (beer is sold in pints, large distances are measured in miles).
*Instead of "u" here, we use the Greek letter "mu", which looks like a u, but with the tail on the left hand side)

Like the idea but, sadly, that is not going to work. The base unit for measuring length is a metre. You could use larger or smaller multiples of a metre depending on the distance that you wanted to measure.
In the solar system, we use AU (astronomical units), which is defined as the average distance from the Earth to the Sun. For distances between stars, typically light years and parsecs.
All of the units on the list that accompanies the question are equal.
i think its cubic yottaparsec. because there is 8 squares in cubic. so square yottaparsec and yottaparsec is smaller than cubic yottaparsec. ez
A yottasecond is 34 quadrillion years
The S.I. unit of distance is the metres, which is basically the distance between any two points.
millimeter = unit of distance, not weight kilometer = unit of distance, not weight
Yes
An astronomical unit is the distance from the sun to earth.
The unit for length and distance is the same. It is the meter (m).
metre
The S.I. unit of distance is the metres, which is basically the distance between any two points.
A meter does not have weight - it is a unit of distance.
Distance is the unit of length.In Physics, 1 unit of distance is 1 unit of speed into 1 unit of time.That means 1 km distance is equal to 1 km/h of speed of the object in 1 hr of time . Distance=speed *time.
The S.I. unit of distance is the metres, which is basically the distance between any two points.
The SI (International System of Units) unit for distance is the meter (m).
Its speed is the distance it travels per unit time.
millimeter = unit of distance, not weight kilometer = unit of distance, not weight
The metric unit for distance is the metre which is roughly 39.4 inches.
None.Speed is the distance covered per unit of time. If no distance is covered then the speed is 0.None.Speed is the distance covered per unit of time. If no distance is covered then the speed is 0.None.Speed is the distance covered per unit of time. If no distance is covered then the speed is 0.None.Speed is the distance covered per unit of time. If no distance is covered then the speed is 0.
Work is force times displacement (distance). Thus, about 3 work is being done. The unit depends on the unit of the work and distance. If the work unit is Joules, and the distance unit is meters, then the force unit would be Newtons.
No, it's a unit of distance
