What unit measures distance in the metric system?
The metre (meter in the USA) is the base unit of length in the metric system. It is equal to the distance light travels in a vacuum in a time interval of 1/299792458 of a second.
How is time measured in the metric system?
Time is measured in exactly the same way regardless of whether the measurer uses metric, standard, or imperial measures. The base unit of time is the second. All the normal SI prefixes apply, but are generally only used for intervals shorter than a second.
What is quantity represented by the base unit second?
Time
Is coulomb an S I base unit?
No, a coulomb is a derived unit. A base unit is a unit that isn't made by combining other units. There are seven base units, including metre (length), kilogram (mass), and second (time). Coulomb is the unit of electric charge. One coulomb is the charge delivered by a steady current one ampere in one second. It is derived from the base units ampere (electric current) and second (time).
What are all the prefixes in the metric system mean?
Milli is 0.001 of the Base UnitCenti is 0.01 of the Base Unit Deci is 0.1 of the Base Unit BASE UNIT Deca is 10 of the Base Unit Hecto is 100 of the Base Unit Kilo is 1000 of the Base Unit
What is the metric base that measures mass?
The base unit for measuring mass is kilograms.
What is base unit for time?
the same as the base unit OF time.
The SI unit base unit for time?
In international system the base unit of time is second.
What unit measures time?

What unit is commonly used in both the metric and US system of units?
Measures for time, and measures for angles.
What is the base unit of time?
Whereas SI uses seconds as it's base time unit, there is no base time unit for Imperial. Depends on the application, industry, etc.
What is the base for time units?
the same as the base unit OF time.
What unit measurs mass?
The unit that measures mass is the kilogram. The SI unit that is used to measure weight is the newton.
What unit measures distance in the metric system?
The metre (meter in the USA) is the base unit of length in the metric system. It is equal to the distance light travels in a vacuum in a time interval of 1/299792458 of a second.
Are seconds a SI base unit?
Yes, the SI base unit for time is one second.
What is the bass unit of time?
I assume you mean the base unit. The international (SI) unit for time is the second.
What metric unit measures time?
There is only one: the second.
