A centimetre or a millimetre for everyday objects. Or micrometre for things still smaller - eg thickness of a hair.
Or if you are talking abount things on a very, very tiny scale, a nanometre or picometre. And that's not the end of metric prefices!

road distances in km. measurements in metres or even smaller
Deci means tenth, so decimeter would be a tenth of a meter. Decimeter is smaller then.
The official unit for volume is the cubic meter, but since this is a somewhat large unit, smaller units are sometimes used. A ml (milliliter) is the same as a cubic centimeter, or a millionth of a cubic meter.

Square centimeters are a measure of area. If you were measuring something smaller than a square meter, but larger than a square milimeter, it would be suggested to use square centimeters. because when you are trying to find the area of something you cant just use centimeters because that is just for length not for like how much space is in a shape. That's the best answer i have
A barmeter would be something to measure a bar with, or perhaps a meter to measure how much alcohol the bar dispenses.A barometer measures air pressure.

A 50m tape would be more convenient to measure something as large as a gym, unless it were a cloth tape, in which case, stick with the stick. Cloth tapes gradually stretch with use, and become increasingly inaccurate. A few inches of error in 100 feet is common.
Identify the SI until you would use the measured the width of your classroom

Meter, kilometer is the SI equivalent to the mile.

You would measure a rice plant (or perhaps the length of a rice field) in meters. You would generally measure a container of rice grains (for cooking or eating) in kilograms, unless you were concerned about how much space it would take up on a shelf or something like that.
