We use 7 metric Basic Units. They are: Quantity.................Name..............Metric Symbol length.....................meter..............m
mass.......................kilogram..........kg
time........................second............s
electric current.......ampere............A
thermo dynamic......temperature...K Kelvin
substance..............mole................mol
luminous intensity..candela...........cd
It is an International system of measurement, based on 7 standard units and hundreds of derived units. Each unit and derived unit has a different symbol.
Symbols for the basic units are:
- length: m
- mass: kg
- time: s
- electric current: A
- thermodynamic temperature: K
- amount of substance: mole
- luminous intensity: cd.
Common metric symbols include m for meters, kg for kilograms, s for seconds, and L for liters. These symbols are used to represent units of measurement in the metric system.
The meric torque symbol is T and the unit of it is N.m as the work unit.
