What is the basic unit of weight in the metric system?
Note that weight actually refers to force exerted due to the acceleration of gravity and the mass of an object. It is commonplace to see the terms weight and mass used interchangeably, though. The SI base unit of mass is the kilogram. The original metric system specified the gram as the base mass unit. The SI base unit of force, which technically would be the correct unit of weight is the Newton (kg*m/s2). The dyne is another 'metric' unit of force (g*cm/s2).
What is unit of illumination?
Light intensities are usually measured in candle power. What that means is the equivalent of the light of one candle, measured at a distance of one foot, sometimes called, `foot candles' or `candellas'. +++ In the SI system the flux or "amount" of light, is measured in lumen; and the illuminence or brightness of the light, on a surface in lumens per square metre, a compound unit called the lux.
