Why does specific heat has the same numerical value in metric and british systems?
Specific heat is dimensionless, and dimensionless units have the same value in any system.
Specific heat is the ratio between two densities - that of the substance considered, and that of water. The ratio of two quantities of the same dimension will naturally be a dimensionless number.

What was the name of the metric system of measurements?
imperial system * * * * * The Metric and Imperial systems are alternative systems! The metric system is properly known as the International System of Units, abbreviated, from its French name: Système international d'unités to SI units.
What is the system of measurement based on multiples of 10?
The metric systems.
The standard unit of mass in the metric system is the?
In the SI - the current metric system - that would be the kilogram. In older metric systems, the gram has been used as the unit of mass.
How is metric measurement different than customary measurement?
They are both systems of measurement except that the metric system is simpler and used by the majority of the world.
How do the British measure weight?
Metric system so grams, kilograms, etc
Which of the British and Metric Systems is conducive to science?
Metric system should be used, to have international standardization.
What are the 2 system of measurement?
two units of measurements are MKS and CGS systems
Is a meter customary or metric?
The opposing systems are imperial and metric, not customary. But, meters are metric.
What are the 2 types of measurement systems?
The two types of measurement systems are the metric system and the imperial system. The metric system is used worldwide and is based on units of ten, while the imperial system is primarily used in the United States and is based on historical British units.
When will the UK become fully metric?
No-one can tell whether it EVER will. There is much opposition within the British public to adopting metric measurements of distance, quantity and weight, so it's likely that both the Imperial and Metric systems will be used in the UK for the foreseaable future.
What has the author T L Freeman written?
T. L. Freeman has written: 'Optimization of Solar Heating and Cooling Systems' 'Parallel projected variable metric algorithms for unconstrained optimization' -- subject(s): Numerical analysis
The metric systems is based on the factor number of?
The metric system is based on a factor of 10.
What is the difference between metric sizes and AWG wire sizes?
Metric sizes and AWG (American Wire Gauge) wire sizes refer to different systems for measuring wire diameter. Metric sizes are expressed in millimeters and are part of the metric system, commonly used in many countries around the world. In contrast, AWG is a standardized system primarily used in the United States, where wire sizes are denoted by a numerical gauge; smaller numbers indicate thicker wires. This difference can affect compatibility in electrical applications and requires careful consideration when selecting wire for specific uses.
How do you write this in numerical form number ten x one point two five metric?
10*1.25 = 12.5 and the word metric makes no sense here.
Why are you using the metric systems?
because it is the BEST!
Does metric or english systems use teaspoon?
The teaspoon measurement is commonly used in both the metric and English systems. In the metric system, a teaspoon is equivalent to 5 milliliters, while in the English system it is equal to about 4.9 milliliters.
Which units are a part of both the US and the metric systems?
The units that are part of both the US and metric systems include length measurements such as inches (US) and centimeters (metric), as well as weight measurements like pounds (US) and grams (metric). Additionally, temperature can be measured in degrees Fahrenheit (US) and Celsius (metric). These units highlight the overlap between the two measurement systems, despite their differing bases.
