In the US what system of measurement is used by scientists and medicine?

In the US, scientists and medicine primarily use the metric system of measurement, which is also known as the International System of Units (SI). This system is used for its consistency and compatibility with scientific research and global standardization.


The metric system is the measurement system of choice for who?

The metric system is preferred by most of the people and countries in the world, especially by scientists. Only three countries hold onto the Imperial system (inch, foot, quarts etc) They are the United States, Liberia and Burma


Why do you think the scientists in the academy of sciences wanted their new system of measurement to be used in all countries?

Scientists in the Academy of Sciences likely wanted their new system of measurement to be adopted globally to promote standardization and facilitate communication in scientific research. A universal measurement system would reduce confusion and errors resulting from varied local units, enabling more accurate data sharing and collaboration across borders. Additionally, it would help streamline trade and industry, fostering economic growth and innovation. Ultimately, a unified system would enhance the reliability and efficiency of scientific inquiry worldwide.


Why do scientists use a standard measurement system?

Everyone uses a standard system, not just scientists. How would we ever do business with each other if each of us were free to define our own measurements? Most of the world uses the metric system of weights and measures while only the US have their own standards, but it is some math to determine the equivalent of gallons in liters or kilograms in pounds.


What countries is the metric system used in?

The international system of units (SI) is practically legal in all the countries; but some countries as United States, United Kingdom and the old colonies of US and UK refuse in practice this system.
