Schools and industry use metric but many people cling to Imperial measures. We still buy beer in pints and drive for miles to a good pub
Yes, Switzerland, along with every country in Europe, uses the metric system.
Yes, Australia uses the metric system for most measurements including length, weight, and volume. This system is officially adopted in Australia for consistency and ease of communication in science, trade, and everyday life.
The metric system was officially adopted in the Philippines in 1861, during the Spanish colonial era. It was implemented to standardize measurements and promote trade and communication with other countries that were using the metric system. Today, the metric system is widely used in the Philippines for all official purposes and in everyday life.
Yes, the metric system is now officially known as the International System of Units
The use of the metric system made legal in the United States by the Metric Act of 1866 (Public Law 39-183). This law made it unlawful to refuse to trade or deal in metric quantities.

The metric system uses the base-10 number system, also known as the decimal system. This means that units of measurement within the metric system are related by powers of 10, making conversions between units straightforward.
No. The metric system (and the Imperial system and any other system like them) is a system of measurement. In so far as all living things occupy a volume, have a mass and experience time, the system measures characteristics that living things experience but these are not, in themselves, characteristics of the living things.
In the US, the metric system is primarily used in scientific and medical fields, as well as in some industries such as automotive and manufacturing. However, common everyday measurements like distance (miles), weight (pounds), and temperature (Fahrenheit) are still predominantly used in daily life.
In real life, the metric system is used universally in scientific work all over the world.It is also used to talk about length, width, height, area, volume, mass, weight, distance,temperature, and speed, by common ordinary people in their everyday real life and workall over the world, except in Liberia, Burma, and the USA.
If in our life metric system is swapped means exchanged then the metric system of two or more countries are fully changed means that countries are in very much in troubble and have to study again.
If one lives in English-speaking communities, it is the main source of communication.
