What metric units does a balance use?
A true balance measures mass, so grams or kilograms.
What is the decimal system of weights and measures based on the meter as a unit length and the kilogram as a unit mass?
It is called the Metric System of Units, and is now used by almost the entire world, for the last 40 or more years because it is so simple to use and calculate. The only country of significance, which does not use the Metric System, is USA.
How many kilograms in 2307grams?
One kg = 1000 grams. So one gram is 10^-3 kilograms. Kilograms and grams are both the metric units of mass. So the answer is 2.307 KG
What is the area of a 20 dollar bill?
A 20 dollar bill is 6.14 inches long and 2.61 inches wide, so using the formula to find area of a rectangle (A=LW), we have 6.14*2.61= 16.0254 inches.In metric units, a 20 dollar bill is 15.6 cm long and 6.63 inches wide, so the area of a dollar bill in metric units is 103.39 cm, or 1,033.89 mm.
How many kilograms makes quental?
One kg = 1000 grams. So one gram is 10^-3 kilograms. Kilograms and grams are both the metric units of mass. So the answer is 100 KG
Why do sciencetist across the country use the metric system?
The metric system, or to be more precise the SI units, are an international standard. If you want to be taken seriously around the world you should use the proper units. Also SI is easy to understand and use. The units are simple to scale up and down, everything moves in thousands, and all units can be defined in terms of the seven base units, so it is a complete and self contained system, unlike all other systems that came before.
What scientists use the system of units so they can share and compare results?
Metric System
What metric units does a balance use?
A true balance measures mass, so grams or kilograms.
What is 3764ths of an inch in metric measurement?
To convert inches to metric units, we need to use the conversion factor of 2.54 cm in one inch. So, to convert 3764ths of an inch to metric units, we divide 3764 by 64 (to convert to decimal) and then multiply by 2.54 cm to get the equivalent value in centimeters.
What is the basic units of length of the metric system?
The basic lengths of the metric system ismilli,centi,gram,litre,metre,etc.
Give me a number of estimate of with of class room customary and metric units?
u guys dont use this site is so stupid and waste of time
Is volts metric?
There are seven metric base units (m, kg, s, A, K, cd, mol). Each of these base units represents, at least in principle, different kinds of physical quantities. From these seven base units, several other units are derived. In addition to the SI units, there is also a set of non-SI units accepted for use with SI which includes some commonly used units such as the volts(that are metric but not a base unit).So volts can be also written as: m2·kg·s−3·A−1 but for easier usage V is used instead.
Why is important to use the metric system when conducting scientific investigations?
The metric system is in place as a standard unit of measurement. It's important to use standardized units so that scientists elsewhere, anywhere, can repeat the investigations to confirm the work.
How much millimetres makes a centimeter?
There are 10 millimeters in a centimeter, 10 centimeters in a decimeter, and 10 decimeters in a meter. That is why it is so easy to convert measurement units in the metric system. (meter system)
Converting metric into square feet?
"Metric" is a system of measurement of all sorts of characteristics: length, area, volume, time, speed, force and so on. No metric measurement units are specified in the question and so it cannot be answered.
Is kilogram metric or customary?
Use whatever is common in your country. In the long term, however, the entire world should switch to metric, for reasons of standardization, so if you happen to live in a country that uses non-metric units, you might try to push for metrification.
Is there a metric version of longitude and latitude?
No. Latitude and longitude are angles, and angles have no physical units. So the numbers are the same regardless of what system of units you like.
