The SI unit for any distance (and that covers the length, width and height of anything) is the metre (m). 1 metre is about 3 feet 3 inches in length There are also multiples or fractions of this unit which are derived from the metre that are used for long and short distances. For example - 1 kilometre (km) = 1000 metres (1km is about five eighths of a mile) 1 metre = 100 centimetres (cm) - around 2 and a half centimetres = 1 inch. 1 metre = 1000 millimetres (mm) - 25 mm is about an inch.

What can be measured in millimeters?
Any length can be measured in millimetres, although it would be silly to measure the distance to the moon in millimetres!The lengths of insects, leaves may be measured in mm. But mm are also used, for accuracy, in measuring up units for fitted kitchens, wardrobes and so on.+++The preferred units in SI are the metre and millimetre. The centimetre is often used in shopping, clothes sizes and the like, but other than the cubic centimetre (cc) used in chemistry, not in science and engineering.

Which SI unit is appropriate for measuring the height of a person?
The SI unit appropriate for measuring the height of a person is meters (m). Height is typically measured in meters due to its universal use in the International System of Units (SI) for length measurements.
How do we the measure volume of a box and what are the si units?
-- Measure the length of the box. -- Measure the width of the box. -- Measure the height of the box. -- Multiply (length) times (width) times (height). The product is the volume of the box.
